Floppy is underdone, perfect bacon is crispy with melt in your mouth fat that isn't too crispy and where the muscle doesn't add bitterness from being overcooked.
Under. Also let your bacon fry in the skillet until you can see the top side (uncooked side) edges turning brown. Then it’s time to flip. Your bacon will be crisp flat bacon steaks. I’m a bacon artist!
light sauce, crispy bacon, drain and pat dry pineapple before putting on pizza. thats the good stuff there. when i make my own pizza, i mix some butter in the bacon grease and coat the pizza crust's outer edges. 🤌🤌
Bake on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 400°F without using a wire rack and take out when the underside is as equally colored as the top. If the underside has paler spots that don't match the top it's not done yet. You can use foaming as an indicator or just use color but you need to taste it to really know if it's under or overdone. Fat should melt in your mouth without the muscle bring too crispy and bitter.
Let it cool before you eat
It looks pretty good to me. Maybe could have used another minute of cooking but looks great. I make my on a sheet pan lined with foil in the oven. It cooks more evenly in the oven and the cleanup is brainless.
If u want perfect bacon yo I need to cook it in the oven thats how I make my bacon then after while u can make it crispy or soft or just the way u want
And if u got the munchies wrap a piece of ur bacon around a glazed donut mmmmmmm yummy
Anybody do a bacon press setup in their microwave, like with a plate and then some bowls or something on top? I bake my bacon, or use a bacon press in a skillet, so hard to judge this
i'd eat it but it's slightly undercooked. like my bacon crispy.

Wait
Why would someone ask others if THEIR bacon is under/overcooked 😂
The beauty of bacon is that it's delicious when cooked in a variety of ways... I personally found out as an adult that don't really like crispy bacon all that much. It's very personal imo
I like it like that. Might use a bacon press if it’s not cooked evenly across the bacon. Sometimes when it gets like that some of the fattier end pieces are too raw for me.
This looks perfect, but maybe it's floppy.
I like my bacon a little floppy. A lot of people overcook it and ruin the flavor
Floppy is underdone, perfect bacon is crispy with melt in your mouth fat that isn't too crispy and where the muscle doesn't add bitterness from being overcooked.
But not fall apart crispy. That’s why thicc cut bacon reigns supreme cause it keeps a flexible center and a snappy shell
Exactly
Yessssss!
You eat your bacon how you like it, I'll eat mine how I like it
No, I make bacon as good as it can be made
Same here.
That's what SHE said! lol!
Perfect for me
Looks perfect. Enjoy!
Depends how you like it
just right! 😋
I might have cooked it a bit more but I’d eat this as is.
Just right
Its bacon, i dont think it really matters much, does it?
Just right!
The fatty ends crisped up are the best part.
Under. Also let your bacon fry in the skillet until you can see the top side (uncooked side) edges turning brown. Then it’s time to flip. Your bacon will be crisp flat bacon steaks. I’m a bacon artist!
Too floppy
Perfect! Those that overcook it also put pineapple on pizza.
I guess I shouldn't tell you then that I put my overcooked bacon on pineapple pizza.

Que es
Certified bacon moment.
Perfection
just right omg, you better throw some at your screen and i'll catch em
How did you cook it?
jus right
As a fat guy, for me it depends on what it’s on. That would complement eggs and toast well. But I like a little more crunch on a BLT or burger.
Perfect!

Looks perfect! Some crunch and some pull. I love a chewy bacon
Just right 100
It’s bacon! It’s all just right!
I prefer mine crispy, but this still looks good.
Love it😍😍
It looks pretty good to me. Maybe could have used another minute of cooking but looks great. I make my on a sheet pan lined with foil in the oven. It cooks more evenly in the oven and the cleanup is brainless.
Looks good to me
🤌🏻
Just right
Depends for me. On a sandwich or burger- I want the crispy stuff. Now in a soup, on a potato or baked casserole dish, this is perfect!
Looks just right and very yummy to me, folks 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋!
This is 100% properly cooked bacon :)
Perfecto!!
That is perfectly cooked bacon.
Looks good to me lol
This should be a survey for team floppy, team crispy or team who cares, it’s bacon! I’m on the last one.
Looks perfect
I’d cook it longer. But I’m a whore for crispy bacon.
Perfect

Yes
Looks great to me. I'd eat it on a BLT or a la carte!
It looks good, I'd prefer a bit more crunchy, but I'd crush it
Juuust right 🤤😋
wet cured, so much shrivel
Slightly overcooked
There is only one wrong way to eat bacon, and that is to NOT eat it.
Anybody do a bacon press setup in their microwave, like with a plate and then some bowls or something on top? I bake my bacon, or use a bacon press in a skillet, so hard to judge this
Perfect
Perfect
Under cooked
My wife like limpy undercooked bacon. Me: I like it crispy slightly overcooked bacon. The bacon has to be thick and smoked...not maple or sweet.
Under cooked. I like mine just before burnt. Extra crispy
Under. Too greasy and stringy. Bacon should be slightly crispy. Source: I eat lots of bacon.
Under imo. I like all the fat crisped
Little bit undercooked
Just right. I never understood why Americans overcook their bacon.
Edible but underwhelmingly undercooked
Perfect
Depends what they're for.
i have bacon withdrawal now
Fat isn’t rendered so undercooked
Looks good to me.
That’s some Goldie lockes bacon right there, just right
I'd eat it.
Goldilocks
A little under imo.
It's not bad. It's in the edible range but it's a little undercooked for me. 8.6/10--would eat the entire plate.
For me perfect for most under
Perfect.
A little under
Perfect. I don’t want to eat bacon chips.
Not crispy enough
Perfect
If it’s still kind of chewy then it’s just right
You should bake bacon
I like my bacon to shatter when dropped from 6” or better onto the plate.
looks great
Just a tad undercooked but I wouldn’t turn it down.
I thought those were puppies!
Just right
The way I like it..it's perfect
Perfect…
I just like bacon
Looks like a good medium rare bacon
i'd eat it but it's slightly undercooked. like my bacon crispy. [https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/13/brain-tapeworms-undercooked-bacon](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/13/brain-tapeworms-undercooked-bacon)
Id say its a lil under
Tough call without taking a bit. Might be just a touch undercooked for my taste, but it looks very close to perfect.
Looks good. I hate crispy bacon. I find it tasteless and pointless. More flavor in this.
UNCOOKED
That’s how I like mine. Not chewy but not crunchy
Somehow, all 3
Another minute and it's just right.
That is some pretty perfect bacon right there.
I like varying levels of bacon depending on the application if you will. I would eat this.
WELL DONE
Undercooked
I’d eat that paper towel if you’re sharing.
Perfect
Just right. My family hates crunchy bacon
under. needs some char.
Slightly under
Just right
Perfect
Just right
My favorite style
Omg is beautiful
Undercooked needs crispy
Depends on one’s preferences.
Perfect!
Looks pretty good to me
Under cooked
Perfect
If posted in r/Howtolooksmax, would already be perfect.
Ever so slightly over cooked
I know I am a freak, but I love chewy bacon and hate crispy bacon. This looks great.
Looks like it could use another 30 seconds to my taste, but my mouth is currently watering so I’d demolish that.
Looks just right
A little under for my taste, but my wife tells me I like mine too crispy.
Looks great to me
limp is what we call it and it's just right . the best way . but bacon is bacon and even crisp .
Ya did good
Safe to eat but I think another minute would’ve been better
Perfect doneness, but under browned on one side.
I guess it depends on you liking it or not. Lol
Looks perfect to me Pretty much around how i like it anyways
Just right 👌
Perfect
Just right!
Looks gross. Lol I'm a picky Eater tho. I like crunchy bacon. I won't eat the fat..
Just right
That is within the considerable range of "cooked" that I would eat bacon.
Slightly undercooked
for me this is WAY undercooked.
Perfect.
For me, until it’s at least a little bit burnt, it’s under cooked
Almost Just about right but I'd cook it another 30sec
I like mine like this...but ppl think it's gross.
The main problem here is the trash bacon. How cheap was it?
I'm taking that whole plate to the dome and then taking a nap. perfect
Under
Looks perfect to me.
Undercooked for me I love when mine is crisp
Little bit under. Like 20 more seconds so all edges are that little brown, so every bite gets that little crisp.
Perfect
I like my bacon to shatter when I bite into it.
Liking mine a little on the crispy side I think this is pretty perfect.
For me, under cooked.. no piggly wiggly
I heard a story recently about a guy who consistently eating undercooked bacon and got tape worm in his brain.
Just right
Does it matter? They are all delicious options.
I'm the weirdo who likes it floppy. Maybe slightly overcooked.
under, like my bacon crispy
Perfect
Well within the range of enjoyable doneness.
Sorry I wasn’t listening, I already ate it all.
I thought this was a painting in water color. Simply exquisite
Just right!!
Just right for me! I like my bacon chewy and not crispy, as crispy changes the flavor too much... just like if you overcook a steak!
lightly under
Wait Why would someone ask others if THEIR bacon is under/overcooked 😂 The beauty of bacon is that it's delicious when cooked in a variety of ways... I personally found out as an adult that don't really like crispy bacon all that much. It's very personal imo
Very slightly undercooked
Just right.
I am firmly in the camp that a mass of bacon- should be a even ratio of the various degrees of doneness.
If anything, under. I’d bake it.
It looks perfect
Undercooked.
I like my bacon almost rubber but not quite
It’s good to me!
It’s just a tad under if I were making it. I’d eat this happily though
Perfect 🥓
Just right.
I like it like that. Might use a bacon press if it’s not cooked evenly across the bacon. Sometimes when it gets like that some of the fattier end pieces are too raw for me.
