Description 170g Smoked Streaky Bacon 700g Smoked Streaky Bacon (Family Pack)

A superbly favoured, naturally marbled, traditional streaky bacon made properly.

Streaky bacon comes from the belly of the pig so carries a touch more fat than its leaner counterpart, back bacon. But this bit of extra fat translates into a crispy bacon that really satisfies.

This is the perfect bacon for a hearty brunch, a BLT sandwich, or to wrap around leaner meats when roasting to keep them moist.

This is the real deal: handmade, artisanal bacon that follows traditional techniques perfected over the centuries.

Available in two pack sizes: 170g or 700g.

Our Approach

As for all of our pork products, we only source from our amazing supplier in North Yorkshire who raises heritage breed pigs with the utmost care and consideration for their welfare.

We cure the meat with a mix of salts and botanicals (pepper, juniper and bay) and then we air-dry it for at least three weeks, during which time it gets gently smoked in two stages, a week apart.

This ageing process is key to the incredible flavour of our bacon. Where most producers actively inject brine into their bacon, we strive to reduce the moisture content in order to really develop the intensity of the savoury flavours.
