I've tried may different ways to cook bacon. Now my go to method is a 350 degree oven. Comes out nice and crispy every time.
Unlike ICamels recipe I start with a preheated oven. I do also line the pan with foil. But then I take long sheets of foil the length of the pan and roll or crunch them into long strips to lay the bacon over so it is mostly held up out of the drippings.

I make my own bacon from pork belly's and from the fat end of Pork Butt's. So Bacon is my thing. My best bacon is made with Cure #1, salt, honey, molasses, dry mustard and picking spice. Brine for 1 week then smoke for 12 hours. I sometimes do Canadian Bacon in the same brine Also amazing. For the most part I always cook bacon in a pan in the oven @ 375 degrees. It's easier to manage the temp and not chance burning it due to the honey and molasses is more burnable compared to dextrose use commercial bacon. Far as recipes go, I'm pretty straight up liking it with eggs. I'll chop it into "Eggs Erroneous" as my brother calls it, basically scrambled eggs with everything in it. Bacon on a burger....or a favorite of my sons and mine, chicken livers wrapped in bacon.
Now here is exotic bacon I made called Shinkenspek. This recipe for Shinkenspeck is from Rytek Kutas sausage and meat curing book. He calls regular bacon "poor mans bacon" compared to this. Not sure I agree with that but this is real fun. It's a cured boneless sirloin and wrapped tightly with a cured belly then lightly smoked. Dried Juniper Berrys in the brine. Slice off a 1/2" slices and fry. It will bulge up so a bacon press is good to keep it flat on the skillet.

Uh bacon. Was my only weakness but because of high cholesterol level I had to stop eat that and have some diets like https://betterme.world/articles/7-day-anemia-diet-plan/. Sad ofc but health is more important!
