Bacon in toaster oven
2023-04-27: first attempt. Four slices at 400°F for 20 minutes in baking mode, starting cold. That wasn't crispy enough for me, so I added ten minutes. The result with a total of 30 minutes cooking time was really good.
Next time: try 400°F for 20 minutes but in broil mode.
2023-04-28: second attempt. Four slices at 400°F for 20 minutes in broiling mode, starting cold. Perfect results.
2023-07-02: I tried the same directions as last time using jalapeno bacon from Sprouts. The bacon burned. I'm not sure if this is a summer-time issue, or if it's a bacon quality issue. Certainly the bacon was much fattier. If I use that bacon again, next time I'll try 15 minutes.
2023-07-04: This time I again cooked jalapeno bacon from Sprouts. I again tried 400°F for 20 minutes in broiling mode, but this time I put the try on the lower shelf, not the mid shelf. It came out almost perfect. Next time I should try 18 minutes. I'm thinking the difference between summertime starting-heat and wintertime starting heat makes the difference between 18 and 20 minutes cooking time.
