If you're worried about the bacon not cooking, you can par-cook it in the oven. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F. Place aluminum foil on a baking sheet and arrange the bacon strips of bacon over it. Cook the bacon for 5 to7 minutes, until it's just starting to render, but still quite pliable.  Pro-tip: if you're going to pre-cook the bacon, don't cut it in half, as it will shrimp when it's cooking.
