Abstract

A microwavable package for storing and cooking a food product such as bacon, includes an absorbent bed enclosed within a sealed plastic sleeve. During microwave cooking, the corrugated bed collects oil or grease released by the food product and maintains a portion of the food product in contact with the collected oil or grease to impart a pan-fried quality to the cooked food product. Vents in the sleeve permit the controlled escape of water vapor so that the sleeve billows away from the food product during cooking. An inert, oxygen-free atmosphere is contained within the package, and a plurality of the microwavable packages are enclosed in a sealed outer barrier wrap prior to their removal for cooking.
