Smoked Uncured Canadian Bacon Ends

Eating adventure ideas with Bacon Ends:

Chop them up and add to scrambled eggs or omelets. Layer them on breakfast sandwiches or breakfast burritos. Toss them into pasta or mac and cheese. Add them to soups or stews for extra flavor. Crumble them over salads. Mix them into quiches or breakfast casseroles. Dice them small and add to green beans or Brussels sprouts. They're leaner than regular bacon but just as flavorful, and because they're pieces, they're perfect for cooking into other dishes rather than serving as standalone strips.

Yes, it's "uncured" and synthetic nitrate/nitrite free!

Nitrates or nitrites are synthetic preservatives commonly used in processed meats. "Uncured" means we're not using those chemical additives. Instead, our bacon is preserved naturally through smoking, sugar, and celery juice powder (which contains naturally occurring nitrates and nitrites). This is more the the old fashioned way. You get all the flavor and none of the stuff you're trying to avoid.

Why forest raised matters?

For most of history, pigs lived in woods and forests, rooting for acorns, wallowing in mud, moving freely. That's what pigs do naturally. 

Now? Most pigs are raised in concrete confinement barns. They never go outside. The meat is pale, watery, and bland.

Forest-raised pork is pork the old fashioned way. Pigs living in the woods, eating a natural diet. The meat is darker, richer, more marbled, and actually tastes like pork used to taste. It's just raising pigs the way they're supposed to be raised.
