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.

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 |
