Product Information
All our unsmoked bacon & lardons are now made without using nitrites or nitrates.
We've worked hard over the past few years to find a way of curing our bacon to keep it food safe whilst also avoiding using nitrates or nitrite salts, traditionally used to make bacon.
This is the result. Great tasting bacon cured with salt and flavoured with organic fruits and vegetable extracts; lemons and the fruit of the Mediterranean carob tree. Sliced thinly to allow it to crisp up perfectly.
Great Taste Award Winner! Gold Star 2023.
Our bacon is made from free range, outdoor bred pigs raised to the highest welfare standards - going above and beyond the usual organic standards. We do not routinely use any antibiotics and NEVER use critically endangered ones. The pigs are fed on a GM free diet and their food is supplemented with fresh waste fruit and vegetables from Abel and Cole adding colour and variety to their day. All our pigs are free to roam and root as pigs love to do. They live in warm pig arks with plenty of straw bedding and we even dig wallows for them to cool off in when the weather gets hot.
If you like our unsmoked streaky bacon, make sure you try our unsmoked back bacon too or our sausages or pulled pork.
