Freezing individual pieces rolled up like that is convenient but you have to let them thaw completely before cooking and freezing them after cooking them either means squishy cold bacon after it thaws or if you re-heat it, overcooked bacon.

Solution. Half cook the bacon, drain the excess grease, lay it out on a cookie sheet or what ever will fit in your freezer) to freeze, then when frozen move it to a zipper freezer bag.

When you have a hankeren for some crispy bacon (happens a lot with me) grab a couple pieces from the bag, put them on a paper towel in the microwave to thaw and finish cooking, and viola, Mmmm, tasty, crisp, hot bacon.

I use Hormels nitrate free bacon. I just cut the pack in half, getting 12 1/2 slices-2 full slices for 3 people. If there are any leftovers, BLT’s for lunch or in a salad..Yum

I buy Niman Ranch Applewood smoked bacon at Trader Joe’s. I then cook all the bacon ( I cook 3 strips at a time) sandwiched between two paper towels for 1 miute per strip in the microwave. They come out perfectly flat and properly cooked. I then store them flat in a zip lock freezer bag and freeze them. When I need a piece of bacon, I remove a frozen strip, pop it in the microwave for about 15 seconds and…Voila! Hot cooked bacon.
