Crispy bacon is inferior to soft-cooked bacon, amirite?

You can pry my crispy bacon out of my cold, dead hands. Not burnt, but well done.

I agree. I don't like my bacon crispy, I like it cooked juuuust under that crispy threshold.

You're 100% correct

Yeah, where it's not floppy but hasn't crossed the threshold into turning into dust when you eat it.

I disagree, as long as it's not burnt, I prefer my slices of pig to be hard and crispy.

Soft but crispy on the edges is 💯 👌🏻

Cold crispy bacon is still as delicious. Cold soft bacon is a cold soggy mess.

Softer bacon for breakfast items, but I prefer thin crunchy bacon for most sandwiches. If it crunches like a Pringle, it's about right.

Besides burnt or raw bacon, is there really a bad kind of pork bacon?

by Catherinehayes 4 days ago

One of my esteemed colleagues and I would refer to well done bacon as "glass" when it was in the lounge. We wouldn't touch it.

That's…not the reason why rare steaks are considered better. And anyway rare is only considered better for lean cuts. The general rule is the fattier something is, the more you cook it, because rendered and/or crispy fat is much nicer than chewy solid fat. And bacon is pretty damn fatty.

Floppy bacon is superior

The more fat a meat has the more cooked you cook it.

I like my bacon to be crispy but not burnt, it has to be cooked to the point where when I bite it, just the tiniest bit of pressure makes the piece of bacon shatter into bacon dust in my mouth.

Unpopular indeed! Bacon fat should be crisp enough to melt like cotton candy in your mouth.

The degree of bacon doneness would have been a major compatibility issue possibly leading to cancellation of the wedding had my husband and I not been on the same page. Thankfully, neither one of us likes crispy bacon. 😁

Pro tip: keep your bacon out at room temperature for about 15min before cooking your bacon. That helps the fat and the meat cook more evenly and thoroughly. Then you can have crispy bacon without burning it.

Seconded. Soft bacon has way more flavor

by Anonymous 4 days ago

I agree. I like it slow roasted in an oven until cooked but not crisp at all. It gets a great consistency that literally melts in your mouth yet slightly chewy. yum.

Agree, soft cooked flimsy bacon all day baby. When we go out for breakfast, I don't order the bacon because 99% of the time it's too overcooked for me. If I want it, I have to cook it myself.

You should go to Europe. Limp bacon everywhere. Its so good

by Cheyennereilly 4 days ago

If you're cooking bacon in a pan, in the words of Chef John: "If the bacon is foamy, it's almost done, homey". That means it's about to be perfectly crispy but not overdone. Words to live by.

by Longjumping-Ball-225 4 days ago

Yep, 100% agree. I had a guy stay with me for a bit recently and I usually make eggs and bacon for breakfast every day and was happy to cook for him as well. He quickly took it upon himself to "show me how it's done" and cooked six times as much bacon until it was crispy carbon. We very quickly finished what was usually a pretty steady supply for my breakfasts and I just ate muesli until he left

Unrendered fat is disgusting. Who wants to gnaw on gristly fat (besides this guy apparently)?

I ain't about biting into a half cooked piece of pig ANYTHING. I'll pass on parasites, thanks. Baked in the oven is how you do it right.

Personally I'd say back bacon is better soft, but streaky bacon is better crispy (not burnt) or just under crispy.

It should shatter if you drop it.

It should be crispy but not crumbling apart. There needs to still be some flexibility in it.

I think breakfast sausage is superior to bacon on a whole. It's too geasy and is too much of a hassle to clean up after cooking bacon.

by Anonymous 4 days ago

It's a big difference between crispy and burnt. And soft bacon is just so slimy and too soft. Bacon is already pretty much half fat, so cooking it soft makes the fat more pronounced. But hey you do you lol. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

by sengercarlie 4 days ago

I agree, soft, juicy, greasy bacon, dripping with delicious bacon grease is absolutely luscious, incredibly slurpable and has far more of a meaty texture to it, I love to get this kind of bacon with some Overeasy eggs with a runny yolks, and dip the bacon in the yolk, and then slurp all that goodness up!
