Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 375 degrees. TIP: Keep biscuit dough in refrigerator until ready to use; it’s easier to work with when cold.
Heat a large dry pan over medium-high heat. Add bacon*; cook, turning occasionally and adjusting heat if browning too quickly, until crispy, 6-10 minutes.
Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Carefully pour bacon fat into a small heatproof bowl. (For 12 servings, cook in batches, carefully pouring bacon fat into bowl after each batch.)
Once cool enough to handle, halve bacon crosswise.
