Hey JD.
I made something with wrapped-bacon recently and it had a very good suggestion that I never thought of.

It said to microwave the bacon for a few minutes until the bacon is about halfway cooked. This does a couple of things:
1) it gets rid of A LOT of the fat/grease.
2) it makes the bacon on the finished meal a lot more crispier.

You should try this out next time and see how it works.
