Mangalitsa Bacon, Hand Dry Rubbed Old Fashioned bacon that is made from the thick bellies of the Mangalitsa pig.

Mangalitsa Bacon is like traditional pork bacon, but it is cut from a fatty belly. The meat is cured with brown sugar, salt and other herbs, and then Hickory smoked to develop a rich, smoky flavor. The fat in Mangalitsa Bacon is highly prized for its soft texture and rich taste. Our Uncured Mangalitsa Bacon is just like our Cured Bacon only Celery Powder is substituted for the curing salts.

To prepare Mangalitsa Bacon, it can be sliced and pan-fried or baked in the oven until crispy. It can also be used as an ingredient in a variety of recipes, from sandwiches to pasta dishes to soups and stews.

Mangalitsa Bacon is a premium cut of pork that is highly sought after by chefs and foodies for its unique flavor and texture. It is a delicious and indulgent addition to any breakfast or meal and is sure to impress even the most discerning bacon lovers.

16 oz package. Be careful, it’s addicting. Buy 5 or 10 lbs (packaged 1 lb per pack and save!)

Cured and Uncured Available.

A big part of what makes Mangalitsa pork special is its creamy, buttery fat, so we recommend not cooking this bacon until it’s completely crisp – much of the fat will be rendered out and the bacon may be left too salty. Instead, cook it until the meat is cooked, but the bacon is still somewhat pliable.

Introducing our Dry Rubbed, Old Fashioned Artisan Bacon – a mouthwatering creation meticulously crafted by hand to perfection!

In a world of mass-produced meats, we take pride in reviving the traditional methods of yesteryears. Our artisan bacon begins with the finest cuts of premium, Mangalitsa pork belly. Each piece is carefully selected for its exceptional marbling, ensuring a rich and succulent flavor that will tantalize your taste buds.

This rub consists of an exquisite combination of brown sugar, premium sea salt, cracked black pepper, a secret blend of all-natural spices, and sodium nitrite, creating a harmonious symphony of tastes and aromas.

Taking time and patience as their guiding principles, our artisans then gently massage the dry rub into the pork belly, allowing the flavors to infuse deeply. This step is crucial in ensuring a balanced, savory experience that will leave you craving more.

After the rub is applied, the bacon is left to rest in a temperature and humidity-controlled environment, allowing the flavors to meld and mature naturally. No shortcuts are taken in this traditional process – just the loving touch of skilled hands and the passage of time.

Finally, the bacon is carefully and slowly smoked over real hardwoods. Our artisans vigilantly tend to the smoking process, ensuring a perfect balance of heat and smoke, imbuing the bacon with a delicate smokiness that complements the robust flavors from the dry rub.
