Bacon... it's the 5th food group.

Oh yes!
Now, My wife loves bacon, but cannot stand the way the house smells after our Sunday brunches, post bacon cooking. We've tried running the double fan 600 CFM range hood during cooking and after, closing all the doors in the upstairs etc, using the microwave, oven and stovetop methods for cooking, but to no avail.
Then it struck me. I have a perfectly good Weber propane bbq sitting on the back deck.
So, now, I line the grill with foil, shiny side up, and put the entire pack of bacon out on the foil. medium heat, turning around 5 min mark, and then pulling off just as it gets crispy putting into a serving bowl lined with paper towel. Just as good as indoors, with no smell in the house.
leave the foil on the BBQ until the grease congeals, fold up and through in the trash. Presto. No pan or cookie sheet to clean, or drains getting clogged. No wife complaining about cooking smell all day long. No windows opened wide to air out the house, especially in the dead of winter.
It's clearly a win-win situation.
