how to use...
Follow these easy steps:
1.
Assemble racks. Take two of the slotted panels, and with the
rectangular sockets facing each other, insert the small sockets
into the larger sockets, Fig. A, to form a tent shaped rack. Do the
same with the other two panels. Set one assembled rack aside on
one piece of paper toweling.
2.
Place the other assembled rack upright in the drip tray so the
drainage openings are facing the open handles. Drape the de-
sired number of bacon slices over the rack, Fig. B. Three to five
slices will fit on each rack depending on the width of the bacon
slices. For best cooking results, do not overlap the bacon slices.
note:
Some bacon stretches easily, and as you place it on the racks, it may touch the bot-
tom of the drip tray. This is okay, since the bacon will shrink up as it cooks.
3. While the other rack is still outside the drip tray, load it with bacon. Once the rack is
loaded, carefully place it in the drip tray next to the other rack.
4. Cover bacon with one piece of paper toweling to reduce spattering. Note: Paper toweling
should be free of recycled paper to be safe for microwave use.
5. Place the bacon cooker in the center of your microwave oven and set microwave timer,
allowing at least 40 seconds per slice of bacon being cooked. Begin cooking. Cooking
time will vary from 40 to 90 seconds per slice, depending on the individual microwave
and the type, thickness and fat content of the bacon. Remain near microwave oven during
cooking.
6. When the bacon is done, carefully remove the bacon cooker from the microwave oven
using the handles surrounding the bacon cooker.
use caution when handling the bacon
cooker when it contains hot drippings.
7. Carefully remove the paper toweling. Remove bacon by sliding a knife up under the bacon
through the slot at the top of the rack and lift upward, Fig. C. Flip the bacon over onto a
plate covered with paper toweling and flatten out. For best results, remove bacon from
racks immediately after cooking.
cleaning and Storage...
Allow drippings to cool slightly and then pour them from any of the four corners of the tray for disposal. Separate racks and
wash panels and tray in hot, soapy water or wash in the dishwasher on the rack farthest away from the heating element. This is
usually the top rack. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the bacon cooker.
Stack the slotted panels in the drip tray for compact storage.
