Located in:Meats/Seafood, Bacon

Bacon! The name alone triggers memories of lazy Sunday brunches, hot winter breakfasts, a crisp and smoky indulgence on a sandwich, or luxuriously ringing a choice cut of filet mignon. No matter what connotation, a thick cut of your favorite bacon brings to mind, you are sure to love this sampler of three different bacons that go from sweet and salty to peppery to gamey.
Includes:

Wild Boar Bacon: This specialty bacon is simply sumptuous, with a rich flavor and a heady aroma! (8 oz.)
Hickory Smoked & Peppered Bacon: Smoked in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains, hand trimmed, lean and meaty, the Peppered Bacon has been rolled in brown sugar and hand rubbed with cracked black peppercorns. (12 oz.)
Vermont Maple Cured and Cob Smoked Bacon: Melow, smooth smoke flavor with a finish of Vermont maple syrup sweetness (12 oz.)

Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.

I just love bacon, and all three of these are just delicious. I used the Vermont Bacon for a "bacon wrapped water chestnut" appetizer for a party last month, and everyone complemented me on them!

Disappointing

By Gobber54

from Chicago IL on 11/7/2007

Cons:

Bad Flavor, Bad Texture

Describe Yourself:

Foodie

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Not worth the price. Boar bacon had off aroma and flavor. The nitrate free bacon had virtually no flavor. Nitrate free should not mean flavor free. The Vermont bacon had flavor, but shrunk quite a bit, but did not live up to the claimed "finish of Vermont maple syrup sweetness'.

Delicious!

We haven't tried all of the varieties, but I can tell you that the wild boar bacon is quite fantastic! It is different (in a good way) from your standard bacon. It's a new taste sensation that I can highly recommend!

My dad loved it!

My Dad is super difficult to buy for, and he said that this made his day. He enjoyed them all, though he said the first one his list for reorder was the one from vermont. [...].
