    They make bespoke microwave bacon trays with relief and lids. Drain it in a jar while it’s still warm, and then a dab of soap and a quick rinse does the job. I was raised with it cooked that way, and it’s uniform, unlike pan-fried. No microwave cleanup involved.

        My college roommate and I have been at odds about whether bacon should be microwaved since 1997. Now I just taunt him whenever I cook some.

        Like, I make it a point to call each time and let him know I’m microwaving bacon. He usually doesn’t hang up on me.
