Cook’s Tips: Fully cooked bacon slices are a convenient food product for people on the go. They can be found in the deli section by the other packaged meats at most grocery stores. If you cannot find fully cooked bacon slices, cook and drain 15 slices of uncooked bacon and proceed as recipe directs.
Lining your Stoneware with Parchment Paper makes cleanup a breeze.
