Some people prefer crispy bacon, while others prefer chewy, and still others prefer bacon that manages to be both crispy and chewy at the same time. So how do you cook bacon that is crispy without being too crisp, and chewy without being too rubbery? There are a ton of different ways to cook bacon , from traditionally frying it in a skillet to slow cooking it in your oven at low temps — and everything in between. Each of these methods do have their drawbacks, though, and can leave you with unappetizing breakfast meat that you don't really enjoy eating.
Frying in a skillet can go wrong in a hurry, as your bacon can go from "just perfect" to "fried charred strip of pork" in an instant. Cooking in the oven on a baking sheet at low temps will give you perfectly delightful bacon, but it can take so long , and if you pull it out too soon due to impatience or lack of time, then you just have gross, undercooked bacon.
Thankfully, there is a solution for all of these problems, and it doesn't take a ton of time or leave you with bacon you'll want to throw in the trash. You've probably never considered this method or even thought of it , though. It involves placing the bacon in a skillet, on the stovetop, and covering it with water. Yes, really. It took more than twice as long than the other two methods, and the result left a lot to be desired salt, crispiness. Between the other two ways to cook bacon , it's a toss-up.
If you are looking for bacon that is more tender than usual, splash a bit of water in your skillet. It sacrifices a little bit of flavor for maximum tenderness, which in cases where you want to be able to pierce your bacon with your fork and have it stay together instead of crumble to bits is super worth it. If you want the full salty flavor of the bacon you grew up with, skip the water all together.
