All meat tightens or shrinks when it is cooked, it is the bundles of protein in the meat muscle contracting, if you cook it on a tray in the oven it will not shrink as much or contract the same way as on the stove or in a pan.

It's the water swetting out of the meat, try using Dry Cure.

The more expensive the bacon, the less it shrinks. But you could try cutting it on the side with the fat, make little nicks into it all the way a long about an inch apart(that's an inch on a ruler!!), this stops it curling up, works with gammon also

Yorkshire bacon doesn't! Well that you get from the butcher, dry cured has no shrinkage!
