Discover the rich, savory taste of our premium smoked jowl bacon, crafted from the highest-quality, pasture-raised Berkshire pork. Made from the pork jowl, or cheek, this bacon offers a higher fat content than traditional belly bacon, giving it an incredibly tender texture and bold, smoky flavor.

Why Choose Our Jowl Bacon?

  • Pasture-Raised Berkshire Pork: Ethically sourced from our family farm for exceptional quality and taste.

  • Rich, Smoky Flavor: Naturally smoked to perfection for a deep, savory experience.

  • Higher Fat Content: Perfect for extra tenderness and crispy perfection when cooked.

  • Versatile Use: Ideal for breakfast plates, stews, soups, sandwiches, or charcuterie boards.

What is Jowl Bacon? Jowl bacon is a specialty cut from the pork cheek, known for its rich marbling and unique flavor. It’s cured and smoked just like traditional bacon but offers a deeper taste and softer texture.

How Do You Cook Jowl Bacon? Jowl bacon can be prepared just like regular bacon. Fry it in a skillet, bake it in the oven, or grill it to crispy perfection. Its higher fat content ensures beautiful caramelization and flavor in every bite.

Is Jowl Bacon the Same as Regular Bacon? While both are cured and smoked, jowl bacon is cut from the cheek, while regular bacon comes from the pork belly. Jowl bacon’s marbling and fat content create a richer, juicier experience.
