Hello, I have some special guests today.

My sweet, husband, hi, my sweet, baby.

And today, we're going to show you how to make I mentioned in a few past videos, how? Dr, barry cooks his bacon and it's, a very specific method.

All right, it's, very scientific.

I discovered this myself.

Yeah, this is all him, it's all him.

But we love it this way and it's a nice way to have bacon kind of feel a little more like a snack and less like.

Oh, this is the bacon.

I don't know how to explain it it's fun, it's more fun to eat and it's, super crispy.

So if you're into crispy bacon stick around because that's, what we're making today? Okay, walk us through this beautiful thing that you've invented.

Okay.

So growing up in the south, you cook bacon in a skillet, and some people tried to put the lid on.

But then you can't do that.

And then you have to take the lid off and try to turn it.

And if you're like nisha, you are a bacon grease magnet and literally I could be cooking bacon, and she could be standing over there, and the bacon would pop and get misha across the room.

Uh, plus, you make a huge mess everywhere.

If you cook it in a skillet.

So what we're going to do is cook it in a deeper pot with a lid.

So if the bacon does pop which it's going to do it's going to pop straight up and fall back down in the pot, right, it's, kind of like a laser focused bacon grease and then you're going to keep the top on as much as you can that's going to increase the temperature decrease your cooking time and keep all the juicy flavors locked in.

So we've got a pack of bacon, and you can cut you got to cut it because you're going to be stirring this I'm going to cut this up.

You could actually put it all in there and just stir it, but then you're going to start breaking it.

Thank you toto.

So what we do, and you can make these, you can make them very tiny chips, or you can make them bigger chips.

And what I do is, I just cut the bacon in half.

And then I cut it in half again.

So we're gonna wind up with quarter pieces of bacon.

Okay.

And then let me turn this puppy on okay.

So we're going to take our lid off.

And then what I do this may or may not be necessary, but I feel like it is as I I separate because there's, you know how they're stuck together right? You want to separate them, throw them in the pot.

Okay.

And that way you break that adhesion between each individual piece.

And if there's any you didn't cut, you break those up so that each piece is free-floating and can do its own thing.

We're doing an entire pack of bacon.

Yup, why wouldn't you because yeah, it's going to be gone because you can eat this.

So if you're, you know, gonna sit down and watch something you've got your bacon chips, or you can put after you're done.

You can put these in a ziploc bag and throw in your purse.

Take on the airplane.

Take anywhere.

I think tsa is okay with bacon.

Another way I like to use the bacon chips is I make what I call blt bowls.

And so I chop up tomatoes, and I put in the bacon chips, and you can put some lettuce in there too.

But honestly it's just a bt bowl because I just do bacon and tomatoes, but you could throw cheese in there or whatever that's something that I have sometimes in the summer, because I love blt's, but bread, not necessary lettuce, not necessary.

Either these also work as bacon bits.

You can make your own bacon bits.

Because once these get crispy, you can just like do this in your hand and crumble them over your salad.

If you want to lots of ways to use these also, I do this method when I make my chex mix which the holidays are coming.

So if you want to make my chex mix recipe that's on this channel and on my blog post, too, I use bacon chips in lieu of chex mix.

So some people after they handle the bacon, they wash their hands.

I actually rub it in it makes excellent hand lotion or cream.

Keeps your hands, soft and smooth and bacony.

Yeah.

So you want to show the piece.

Yeah, there it is.

And I start out on the highest temp that I can go.

And then you just put the lid on it.

And you don't even have to add bacon grease to start because it's going to make its own and that's.

One of the bonuses when you do a full pack like this, when you're done you'll, see later, you've got beautiful bacon grease that you can put in your container, which I know you either have on your countertop or you're about to buy because bacon grease is better than money in the bank.

So this process usually takes about 30 minutes.

I would say less, you think, oh, yeah, let's time it.

So we know for sure it is 1 57 right now.

And we just dropped the bacon in so we're gonna let you know just how long this takes yep and you're going to keep it on high and about every two minutes, you're going to take the lid off with a wooden or some kind of spatula and you're going to stir that bacon up so that you don't, keep the same bacon on the bottom you let it take turns who's on the bottom, keeping the lid on increases the temperature, even for the bacon on top, and it slows.

It increases it decreases the cooking time you better it's gonna be loud.

But you know, we gotta put the fan on because bacon, talk loud, dark berry, okay, okay.

So here's our bacon, you can see we've already got bacon grease down in the bottom forming so I'm just going to flip this bacon grease.

And for some reason, if you cook it this way, the bacon doesn't, pop like it does in the skillet.

I don't know exactly why.

But I think it's just a tall size gonna stir it up really good.

And you can see we haven't made much progress yet and then we're gonna put the lid back on and definitely I'm gonna keep it on high until I start to see some browning and then I'll slowly start to turn it down I'm a little bit more cautious, given my history with bacon.

So we're, still in a little less than full heat and we'll, give it another two or three minutes and check it again, but you can see it's already starting to brown up very nicely.

So we're, getting close.

Some people who love flopping bacon might be done at this point.

But if that's you it's, okay, we still love you, but we like crispy, bacon so we're going to keep going for just a few more minutes and I'm going to drop it down just a little bit more live back on we'll, check it again.

In two minutes, all right are we done yet we may be done.

Oh, that looks good.

I think that's, I think that's.

It you're.

Okay with that.

Okay, so we lay it on top of a plate with some paper towels spread it out.

So as it cools, it really gets even crispier, that's it and it's super hot right now.

But of course, it is, we just cooked it.

And now now to save your liquid gold show what my little canister looks like.

This is nisha's little canister.

Well, no show the cute part there.

You go 216.

now, I'll have to figure out how long it took us.

Think about 25 minutes or something like that.

Well, I can't see what you're doing.

Okay.

Now, see we didn't have to deodorize this.

We didn't have to put chemicals in it to make it that beautiful color, it's, just naturally that color.

So any oil that had to go through a chemical processing to make it smell, good and look good.

I would avoid it and not eat it.

But you want to get every drop of this.

Some you can strain this if you'd like I don't like straining it, I don't care if we get some of the little bacon bits in there, there we go that's it.

And now we've got that for the next time we cook eggs or cook.

Anything we've got delicious, yummy, nutritious, uninflammatory bacon grease in the bank.
