Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Bacon
Remove the Nueske's Thick Cut Bacon from its packaging and lay it flat on a cutting board.
- 2
Slice the Bacon
If you prefer smaller slices, cut the bacon into your desired size using a sharp knife. Otherwise, you can cook the slices as they are.
- 3
Preheat the Cooking Surface
Preheat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. If you prefer, you can also use an oven for cooking.
- 4
Cook the Bacon in a Skillet
Place the bacon slices in the skillet in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap. Cook for about 4-6 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of crispiness.

Cook the Bacon in the Oven (Optional)
If using an oven, preheat it to 400°F (200°C). Place the bacon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy.

Drain Excess Grease
Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet or oven and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess grease.

Serve
Serve the Nueske's Thick Cut Bacon hot, as a side dish or as a topping for salads, sandwiches, or burgers.
