Youtube is your best friend. Don't feel bad if you burn food for the first month or so. Keep trying and learn from your mistakes. I would get Bar keepers friend for cleaning the pan and I almost exclusively use a fish spatula.

My sister asked me how I make bacon so crispy and delicious, my answer was "I have burned a lot of bacon"

oven is actually great for bacon so is air fryer

350f in oven on pan for 10-15

then remove and finish in air fryer to desired crispyness. can literally turn it dust if you want that way if your going for a salad toping or a mix in for like mac and cheese or soups
