Microwave Bacon Maker - Food-Safe Crisper Tray that Drains Excess Grease

Crispy bacon without a greasy pan to scrub is a genuinely good trade. The Microwave Bacon Maker cooks bacon in the microwave in a few minutes, and its design lets the fat drain away from the rashers as they cook — which means bacon that crisps instead of sitting and frying in its own grease. There is no hot pan, no spitting oil across the cooker, and no pan to wash afterwards: the tray rinses clean. It is made from durable, food-safe material and shaped so heat reaches the rashers evenly, so you are not left with one crisp end and one raw. It fits most standard microwaves, and it makes weekday breakfast fast enough to actually happen before work. Small enough to store in a drawer, which matters for a single-job kitchen gadget.

Buying guide

Single-purpose kitchen gadgets are only worth buying when they remove a real chore, and the chore here is the greasy frying pan. Before ordering, measure the turntable in your microwave, because the one way this gadget disappoints is not fitting. Check that the design drains fat away from the food rather than pooling it underneath, which is the difference between crisp bacon and boiled bacon — this one separates the grease out. Cooking times vary with wattage, so start shorter than you expect on the first attempt and add time in short bursts until you learn your microwave; bacon goes from perfect to brittle quickly. Cover loosely with kitchen paper to keep splatter off the microwave roof. Rinse it while it is still warm, when fat has not yet set, and it cleans in seconds. It stores flat in a drawer, which is what keeps a single-job gadget from becoming clutter.

How it compares

Against frying bacon in a pan, this is faster, does not spit oil across the cooker, drains the fat away instead of cooking the rashers in it, and leaves you with a tray to rinse rather than a pan to scrub. Compared with oven-baking bacon on a rack, the oven handles larger quantities and gives slightly better browning, but takes far longer to heat and clean. Against an air fryer, an air fryer does more jobs overall while this costs a fraction and stores in a drawer. Choose it for quick weekday breakfasts and minimal cleaning.
