Thick Cut Bacon

Line a half sheet pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil, shiny side up, and place a wire rack on top. Lay the bacon slices on the rack without overlapping. (I usually grind on some black pepper at this point, but that’s just me. Place on the middle rack of a cold oven, close the door, and crank the heat to 400 F. Roast for 30 minutes, or until desired doneness.
