strips to t on the unit may vary based on the thickness and width of each strip.

COOKING TIP: For best results, do not overlap bacon strips.

Drip Tray is full, properly dispose of grease prior to moving the unit.

HELPFUL TIPS

Smoking

If the unit begins to smoke during cooking, it may be due to grease build up. In order to

reduce smoking, make sure that you clean the Cooking Plate and Door Plates between uses.

Cooking Tips

• For best results, make sure bacon does not overlap and strips

are evenly spaced. Bacon will shrink when cooked.

• Unit is recommended for use with regular-cut and store-bought thick-cut bacon.

NOTE: Some meat market or specialty-cut bacon may be too thick for this unit.

• Depending on the type of bacon, if bacon is too long and touching the Door

Plates, the ends of the bacon may need to be trimmed in order to t onto the

Cooking Plate. Use a knife or kitchen scissors to cut the ends of the bacon.

• For certain types of bacon, some may be benecial to ip the

bacon during the last 1-3 minutes of cooking.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning the BACON EXPRESS, ensure that the Drip Tray is free of

grease, the unit is unplugged and all parts are cool to the touch.

harsh or abrasive cleaners. Cooking Plate and Door Plates are dishwasher safe.

directions outlined in the PARTS & ASSEMBLY section.
