Bad Boy Microwave Bacon Cooker - Crispy Bacon Cooker For Microwave Oven - Microwave Cookware for Crispy, Healthy, and Low Bacon Grease Cooked Bacon - Pack of 1 Bacon Maker

We normally buy Hormel microwave bacon at our local Albertsons but due to supply chain issues it’s been out so I was looking for something I could use to cook my own. When this arrived my wife looked at it and said this will go back to Amazon. Boy where we wrong!!! I love this little gadget. Put the bacon in the sleeves, cook for 5 minutes and presto the bacon is done. Bacon is crisp ( depending on how long you cook it) and it is much better than the Hormel bacon we were buying. Clean up is relatively simple. I clean it in my sink with a soap brush and it takes maybe 3 min. I cook it inside a microwave safe dish with two paper towels on the bottom and one on top covering bacon to eliminate any splatter. Couldn’t be much more simple than that. For us it was a real surprise that this worked out as well as it did. Great product!!

First let me say, after a couple months of using, I love this! It does such a great job. I have cooked with both turkey and pork bacon, and both came out well. You'll have to work with your microwave to figure out the perfect cook times for the thickness of the bacon and to what degree of crisp you want, but once you do, it's smooth sailing from there! I usually set this on to cook for 5.5 minutes while I scramble up the eggs, so everything is nice, hot, and ready to eat at the same time.There is grease splatter in the microwave, even with the tray, but it is quite minimal and easy enough to clean. I also place a paper towel over the top to minimize the splatter even further.The only drawback I have experienced is the clean up of the item itself. If you have a dishwasher load ready, it is simple enough to soap off the grease and toss in for cleaning that way. However, if not (or if you're like me and you pretty much clean everything before it goes in the dishwasher anyway), you'll need to fully scrub by hand and that can be inconvenient. Lots of small crevices to ensure are cleaned properly.That being said, my food prep, cooking, eating, and clean up generally takes, all together, only ~20-30 minutes, so it's not a huge undertaking to clean. Just a sort of grumbling-in-the-moment kind of thing. :)I fully recommend this product!

Works well. Only holds 5 or 6 pieces of bacon. Difficult to clean up. Not sure if you'd use it to cook an entire package because it would take too long.

Works fine but is a pain to clean.

In theory, this was a super cool product!I like my bacon super crispy! Like, crumble or just smack it on the plate and it shatters… you know what I mean. Well, I gave this seemingly simple to use item to my mother-in-law to help make a meal the other day. She is NOT cooking savvy in ANY WAY, and struggled to put the bacon in correctly.And despite her best efforts, this contraption isn’t wide enough for any bacon that’s not cut in half.Essentially, the bacon had to be cooked like 8 mins (wanted it crispy, as you read) but because the bacon ends had to be folded back into itself on each end… it got all gummed up together and didn’t cook well.When we took the bacon pieces out, they were nearly inedible, rock hard chunks!I tried loading the bacon myself, seeing as how mom does seem to struggle with anything cooking wise—and results were pretty much the same.This isn’t worth the hassle, or ridiculous grease mess flung everywhere because it’s a tight accordion design and so dang cumbersome!

This is simple, easy, and amazing! I have never been able to cook such perfect bacon! I simply put it in the microwave, and in 6 minutes, I pull out the most perfect bacon I’ve ever had! I am so glad I got the bundle with the tray as well. It’s such a nice grease catcher and helps for easy cleanup afterwards as well. You guys gotta try this thing!!!

It was hard to find a happy medium. The product was hand washed prior to use. 1st picture was 5 minutes and it was still raw so I added it back in for 2 minutes. It was okay, still chewy with some crispy pieces. 2nd picture was 5 minutes in with an additional 5 minutes and it was overcooked and burnt in the middle (not my preference). 3rd picture was 7 minutes and the middle of the bacon completely disintegrated and it burnt the middle of the silicone (4th picture).The flavor on all pieces were pretty bland since it's not cooking itself in grease, but I'd take that result for a healthierish piece of bacon. However, since it burnt the actual silicone, I question if it truly is healthier for you.

I tried for the first time today and I was pleasantly surprised with this. It was easy to use and the bacon cooked perfectly.
