He Cooks Bacon In His Shop
If you love the taste of bacon but don’t like how it splatters grease in a frying pan, you’ll like this idea from Matt McNaughton, Foothills, Alberta, who converted an old waffle iron into a bacon cooker.
    McNaughton drilled a hole into one end of the waffle iron and welded an aluminum drain spout in it in order to drain the bacon grease into a soup can below. He made a stand for the waffle iron by building a small stand that’s set at a slight angle, which allows grease to drain into the spout.
    “I cook the bacon in my shop while I’m doing other small jobs so no time is wasted,” says McNaughton. “It works like a charm. I usually put 3 strips of thick-cut bacon on the waffle iron, then close the lid and let the bacon cook for 6 min. The bacon stays nice and straight and is evenly cooked.”
