trusttheprocess
The process begins with selecting high-quality pork, which is then chilled to make it easier to slice Once chilled, the pork is carefully cut into slabs These slabs are then cured, often using a mixture of salt, sugar, and spices, which not only preserves the meat but also enhances its flavour The curing process can vary, sometimes involving smoking the bacon over wood chips to impart a rich, smokey taste
After curing, the slabs are sliced into thin strips, typically with the aid of a slicer. The thickness of the slices can vary depending on preference, ranging from thick cuts, which are heartier and more substantial, to thin cuts, which are crispy and quick to cook. Once sliced, the bacon is packaged and vacuum-sealed to ensure freshness.
Throughout the process, quality control is essential to maintain the desirable texture, flavour, and appearance of the bacon This attention to detail ensures that when bacon is finally cooked, it delivers the satisfying crunch and taste that bacon lovers cherish
