  “Make this your go to method when you need bacon for a big group and don’t want to bother making multiple batches. Plus, there’s no turning and cleanup is simple”, says The Food Network

  

• 1. Skillet

  The smell of freshly cooked bacon wafting from a stovetop can immediately transport us back in time to our younger days, when our parents and grandparents made us a hearty breakfast.
