We, here at Epic Portions, are always looking for great bacon recipes. Seriously, the more ridiculous the better. Wrap an oven mitt in bacon. I’ll probably read about it. Bacon just adds a level of craziness to any dish that can not be rivaled by any other food. Today, I am happy to share, I found the craziest, most ridiculous, and fattest bacon recipe I have ever come across. The sheer letters on my computer screen brought a tear to my eye. It was like when Columbus stole America from the people who actually found it, only better.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you Rachel Ray’s Late Night Bacon. Be careful re-creating this, or your arteries may explode.
- Ingredients
- 8 slices of Bacon.
- Directions
- Place 2 sheets of paper towel on a microwave safe plate, lay the bacon out on the paper towel not over lapping the slices. Place 2 more sheets of paper towel on top. Place in the microwave on high for 6 to 13 minutes.
OK. If you are a little confused about the first paragraph of this post, let me clarify. I was being sarcastic. This recipe is actually posted on Food Network’s website AND was on TV. Don’t believe me? Click any of the words that are underlined. That’s called in a link. That’s right, Food Network dedicated precious air time to Rachel Ray pulling out 8 slices of bacon, placing them on paper towel, then microwaving them for 6-13 minutes. Then, someone ran to their web designer and said “WE GOTTA HAVE THIS BACON RECIPE ON THE INTERWEBZ!”
Seriously.

This is astonishing. How the Food Network can even allow something like that into their archives blows my mind. How the hell did Rachel Ray even find it to be a clever idea to put that on there. Funniest part is her name is a part of the recipe. SHE TAKES PRIDE IN MICROWAVED BACON! Dude, if she would’ve said like, marinate the bacon in bbq sauce and THEN microwave the bacon, I would’ve been like, “Okay, I guess that doesn’t sound THAT bad.” But are you kidding me? I love all of the comments people left her too. Someone needs to get her stoned and back into the swing of things.
6-13 minutes? Why microwave it? you could fry it in that amount of time and save the grease for making delicious pancakes the next morning. Way to phone it in there, Rachael.
Have you seen this? Grody!

It is pretty obvious that she sells her name to whatever product will take it. There was a RR travel tote at Costco when I was in there.
But yeah..this is obviously not cooking.
The comments were the best part! Priceless. This begs the question: is Rache a whore or does she have a tremendous grasp of irony.
This is like the 5th or 6th “non-recipe” recipe I have heard about being posted by these “chefs” at the Food Network. Another was a “fabulous” carrot salad that consisted of taking a bag of shredded carrots and mixing them with a bottled dressing. Perhaps they need a “Useless Tips” section for this ephemera instead of giving them the actual categorization as recipes?
One might actually thing that the brain trust at the Food Network is now posting these things to draw our ire and attention. I’m waiting for them to post Bobby Flay’s secret BBQ chicken recipe (ie. Bottled bbq sauce poured over microwaved chicken nuggets) or Paula Deen’s Special Buttered Toast. lol
Doing repeatedly exercise routines concerning all the time underside might be extremely sensible together with statements immense treatment solution while in the split second along with impending.
