Experience over many breakfasts will tell you. Once you establish a "baseline" temp and time, varying doneness is easy. It's how I know my omelettes will be ready in 4-5 minutes after pouring, and (the bubble) tell me when my pancakes need flipping - just learn by doing.

Bacon is much disputed food for how much to cook it. Some like it crispy and others like it more soft. I have been in that debate many times and found it's split about 50/50 honestly. I personally like it softer and not crispy.
When it's crispy looking and doesn't look raw anymore.
When it stinks even more than it does raw. 🤢

There are different degrees of being cooked well enough to eat. If the meat is crisp, brown and most of the fat is cooked off, it's what I consider to be well-done. Some folks like it that way, I prefer it softer and with some more pink to it.

you'll hear it...
Depends on what kind of bacon you like. If you like chewy once it starts to get darker pull it. If you like crispy you want a golden brown color and most of the fat to have cooked off
When there's sweat glistening on its forehead 🥓🥓💦
when the color changes brown. but cut thickness to see if inside cooked. then is enough, but some prefer more until well done.
Depends... if you like it crispy that means (well done), if you like it chewy and juicy then will be (medium done).
I like mine crispy so I just cook it till it is. Air fryer works wonders for bacon
I hate crispy bacon because it crumbles if you try to stab it with the fork. I prefer it when it's curly and springy and the edges are reddened.
It's just right when my two dogs line up to get their share.
When it's done to your likeness. It's already cooked. You're just heating it, rendering fat, and crisping it when you "cook" bacon.
The color needs to turn from pink and white to red and gold
If uts been on the grill for 11 seconds it's ready to eat
