What it is
This is a package of thick-cut bacon infused with the aromatic flavors of garlic and rosemary. The bacon is cured and smoked, offering a rich, savory taste profile. The thick cut ensures a substantial bite and allows the flavors to penetrate the meat more deeply during cooking. It is a premium option for those who enjoy enhanced bacon flavors beyond the traditional smoky notes.

- Wrapped around meats
- Added to pasta dishes
To cook, place the bacon slices in a cold skillet. Cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until the desired crispness is achieved. For a less messy method, you can bake the bacon on a rack set over a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until it reaches your preferred level of crispness. Drain on paper towels before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
The primary difference is the addition of garlic and rosemary. Unlike plain bacon, this variety offers a more complex and herbaceous flavor profile. The thick cut also provides a chewier texture and holds up better in dishes compared to thinner cuts, which tend to become very brittle.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking to elevate their meals with a flavorful and aromatic bacon.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused bacon in its original packaging or in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It should be consumed within a few days for optimal freshness and flavor. Ensure it is kept cold to maintain quality.
