Product description

Leaner cooking than pan-frying; fat drips into deep base.

Exclusive cooking racks make loading simple.

Fully immersible and dishwasher-safe.

The easy way to make crisp, delicious bacon in your microwave. Bacon cooks leaner and healthier than pan fried: Features: Special cooking racks allow fat to drip down into the exclusive deep base. Easy-grasp handle wraps around the entire base so it's always within reach. Cooked bacon easily lifts away with the edge of a knife. Bacon cooker is fully immersible and dishwasher safe.

Bacon is excellent with Sunday brunch fixings or on a turkey club sandwich, but many don't cook it often at home because of the high fat content and the mess. The PowerCrisp just may change all that by providing a leaner and cleaner way to make bacon. This microwave bacon cooker cooks bacon either to a crisp or a soft consistency, depending on how much cooking time it's given it in the microwave. It has a pair of tent-shaped plastic racks that are easy to load by simply draping strips of bacon over them. The racks rest within a 2-inch-deep tray, which collects all the fat drippings as bacon cooks so the meat is not sitting in its own grease as with stovetop frying. And, as opposed to pan-frying, there is no splatter involved when cooking bacon in the microwave. Simply place a paper towel over the racks and it captures any grease and keeps microwave walls clean. The wraparound handle makes it easy to remove the PowerCrisp from a microwave turntable and dispose of hot drippings without burning hands. Slotted tops on the two plastic racks allow you to slide a knife through the racks to remove cooked bacon. The PowerCrisp cooks up to 10 strips of bacon at a time and both racks and the bottom tray are completely dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Presto covers this microwave bacon cooker under a two-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

    « great fat-away device »
    very good at getting the bacon fat away from the bacon, for the price-it's o.k..........but not sturdy enough for the long haul.

    This is my second microwave bacon rack.
    It is way better than the first one where the bacon lay flat in the pan in it's own grease.
    On the Presto, the bacon sits on racks and the grease drips down to the pan and off the bacon leaving crisp dry strips.
    I do with it would come with a cover though instead of having to cover the rack with paper towels to prevent grease splatter on the walls of the microwave.
    An excellent product.

    « Perfect little bacon cooker »
    Easy to put together, easy to take apart, easy to store. Simple & not messy to drape the bacon strips over the A-frames. Cooks bacon perfectly. Then, I broke two eggs into the bacon drippings that had collected in the black base and microwaved them for two minutes - perfect well done "fried" eggs ! I am very pleased with this item.
