Years ago, I started baking the bacon in the oven.
These days (especially, this morning & tomorrow morning):
- Put aluminum+parchment (aluminum down, parchment up) on a cookie sheet
- Put bacon on it
- Bake in oven at ~400 deg (temp doesn't matter, but watch the progress, especially the higher it goes)
- Remove flat bacon, and all pieces at the same time.
- Wait for a while when cookie sheet cools and dispose of aluminum+parchment.
- Minor cleaning to cookie sheet.
