We start with pork humanely and sustainably raised by small independent family farmers exclusively for us to our strict animal welfare protocols – the highest standards in the industry which eliminates the use of gestation crates or farrowing crates; never-ever allows for antibiotics or growth promotants, and uses only vegetarian feeds.
Bacon comes from the pork belly and ours is hand trimmed and smoked over real hard Applewood for rich and clean smoke flavor resulting in an irresistible taste. Many of our competitors use liquid smoke but not at Niman Ranch. We slow smoke our bacon for more than 6 hours for a true smokiness.
