Have any of you ever cooked a pound of bacon & then weighed it afterwards? I cooked 3 lbs of bacon tonight: ends & pieces, not strips of bacon. After it cooked I weighed it because I need 1 lb. of bacon for this recipe & 1/2 lb for that recipe. I was pretty shocked - from 3 lbs (48 ozs) it went down to 12 ounces after it was cooked & all the grease was drained off. Is my scale off? Would bacon strips weigh in differently?
