As heard at the Altar of Pork, “Floppy bacon? Heresy!”
I like slow cooking extra thick cut bacon until it almost crumbles into bacon bits. Perfect. Oven cooking of porcine strips does require some preparation and fore-knowledge to avoid “accidents”. Check out this article…
When getting to know someone (friend / girlfriend), one of the questions that eventually comes up is “Do you like your bacon crispy or chewy?”. I don’t understand those that like it chewy. It’s like bacon-flavoured rubber, which is especially annoying if it’s in a burger… there are times when I have accidentally ripped a burger apart because I couldn’t bite through the bacon. For me, crispy is the only way. It’s how I was brought up, and if I have enough of it (which is a good possibility), it’ll be the reason for my end. ;-)
I think you’ve labelled your pictures incorrectly. The pics featuring succulent, juicy, tasty British-style bacon, you’ve titled ‘inedible’, which is obviously wrong. The photo’s showing the brittle strips of tasteless rubbish that are served instead of bacon in Canada, Aussie, and the States you appear to have labelled ‘wonderful’, again incorrectly. Hope my pointing out your mistake is useful to you, and you enjoy a ‘full english’ when you visit the UK!
Oh, you’re really not going to like England…
Crispy, but not “crunchy” bacon is my favorite. You can put it in a sandwich, and not worry about it disintegrating into bits when you take a bite.
Speaking of bacon and sandwiches, I think I hear something in my fridge calling out to me.
All Bacon is spectacular, except the Cops.
I used to be like you, until I started oven cooking my bacon. Perfect amount of crisp and chew
Oven cooking FTW. I prefer mine on the chewy side, though…
Non-crispy bacon is an abomination. But I’m not much of a fan of bacon in general. /blasphemer
Bacon cooked on the George Foreman grill is glorious!

I am on your side. I love crispy bacon. Not when it crumples when you eat it, but just the right crispiness to get a good crunch when you eat it.
