Rated 1 out of 5 by Tannerbabes19 from The bacon became to gooey for me...I don't eat the fat at all on bacon... it takes me time to eat one slice of bacon because I pick off all the fat and I wasn't going to do that just to make this recipe. So I said the heck with it and made the bacon as is and it was...too rubbery for me..
