Heard my neighbor mention flipping bacon halfway through and it blew my mind

I was grilling outside last weekend and my neighbor Mike said he always flips his bacon halfway in the air fryer at 380 degrees. I've been doing whole strips flat for 12 minutes and they come out uneven. Tried his method last night with 6 strips and the difference in crispiness was huge. Anybody else got a weird trick like that for breakfast stuff?

Dale must have some serious trust in that air fryer because eggs in there sound like a total gamble to me. I can just picture opening that basket and having scrambled eggs everywhere or worse, a rubbery mess stuck to the bottom. I mean, I get cooking with bacon grease in a pan, that's a no-brainer, but letting it splatter around in a hot air fryer with eggs? That's a hard pass from me until I see it work in person. I'd rather just crack them in the pan and let the bacon fat do its thing right there where I can see it.

My buddy Dale cooks his eggs right on the bacon grease in the air fryer and swears by it now.

Bet on Dale making that mess in his air fryer at least once. No way that's a clean process every time.
