What is Bacon.
Bacon is a type of pork that is cooked by cooking the bacon in aJar with some type of fat. The most common types of bacon are streaky and sweet. Bacon grease is a by-product of bacon production and can be used to cook other foods. It can also be used to keep foods warm or to add flavor to dishes.
How to Cook Bacon.
The best way to cook bacon is by using an oven or stovetop smoker. To cook the bacon, begin by placing it in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cooking until it’s crisp on both sides, about 8 minutes per side for thick slices or 12 minutes for thin ones. Remove the bacon from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside on paper towels to cool slightly.

Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat before transferring the bacon to a paper towel–lined plate. Repeat this process with the remaining bacon slices.
