how to cook bacon naked.

Traditional methods of cooking bacon involve splattering grease.  If you're a fan of cooking naked, bacon should be off the table.  Until now.

**For the record, I'm not a fan of naked cooking.  Or being naked in general.  I'm not judging if you are, it's just not my thing.

You will need a cookie sheet.  An oven.  Bacon.  Parchment paper, if you're fancy.

Lay out bacon onto cookie sheet (line with parchment first, fancy folks!).  Place bacon in COLD oven.  Set temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (that's 447.444 Kelvin) and set timer for 17 minutes.  Walk away.
Check bacon when timer dings.  Continue cooking if you like, or remove from oven (Carefully!  You're naked and now you've got a platter full of grease!).  Transfer bacon to paper towel-lined plate.  Do what you want with the grease, just don't put it down the drain.

You can enjoy while it's hot, or be like me: put it in a container to enjoy all week.  Pro.
