Cooking Bacon ~ The Easy Way!

This is, by far, the easiest and cleanest way to cook bacon.

1. Lay bacon in a 9x13 dish. DO NOT overlap the pieces of bacon. I usually use two 9x13 dishes, so I can cook the entire pound of bacon at one time.

2. Put both dishes in a cold oven.

3. Set oven at 400 degrees.

4. Set timer for 25-30 minutes.

5. Voila'! The bacon is crispy, and it hasn't shriveled up either. PERFECT BACON!

6. The clean up is a breeze too!

Mama Sherri's BBQ Baby Back Ribs

I like to buy pork ribs in bulk. Then I cut them apart into serving sizes (2 ribs). I wrap them individually and freeze. This preparation really makes a difference when actually making the ribs. Ingredients: frozen ribs Celery salt Onion powder Garlic salt Sweet Baby Ray's original BBQ sauce Directions: 1. Layer frozen ribs in crockpot. Sprinkle each layer with spices. 2. Slow cook on low for 8-10 hours. (I usually put them in before I leave for school. They are ready for dinner, and I return to a great smelling home.) 3. About 15 minutes before dinner time, put ribs on broiler pan (rib side up). 4. Slather with BBQ sauce and put under broiler for 5 minutes. 5. Remove from oven and flip over ribs. 6. Slather with BBQ sauce and put under broiler again for 5 minutes. 7. Serve with your favorite sides.
