Ingredients

  • 1 lb thick-cut bacon

Instructions

  • Fire up your grill to medium heat, about 350°F (180°C)
  • Line a baking sheet or cast-iron skillet with aluminum foil. Use a few sprays of cooking spray on the foil. Alternatively, place a wire rack on top of a foil-lined oven tray.
  • Arrange the bacon strips on the skillet or wire rack, allowing at least ½-inch between each one. Place skillet on grill grates and close lid.
  • Flip the bacon after 8-10 minutes, once the bacon has started to brown and crisp. Cook for a further 5 minutes, or until the fat around the bacon is bubbling.
  • Remove bacon and leave to dry on paper towels for 2-3 minutes. This will drain and absorb excess grease.
  • Serve and enjoy immediately
