Collar Bacon – 500g

Dry cured shoulder bacon.

Collar bacon is from the central muscle of the shoulder and is the same cut as a pork ribeye steak. There is a natural seem of fat running through the bacon that adds flavour and moisture during cooking.

We dry cure our collar bacon then wash it under ice cold water before finally air drying.

Chef Brian Turner said “That’s the best bacon I’ve tasted for a long time!”

Description

Our collar bacon is from the shoulder of North Yorkshire farmed, rare breed pork. We select the pork for its higher fat content, as we believe that this leads to a much tastier product.The slow growing breeds that we use for our bacon put on weight and add flavour slowly in a natural way.

We take the central muscle from the pork shoulder. The same muscle that butchers use for pork ribeye steaks. This is then dry cured slowly before being rinsed in iced water and hung to air dry to develop a fantastic texture and concentrate the flavour.

Collar bacon is just right for making a bacon sandwich with a perfect balance of tender meat and melting fat for extra flavour.

If you want to make your own collar bacon at home, you can buy a whole pork collar and cure it yourself. Let us know if you need some help or a sachet of cure mix.

    Loved the quality of the meat but contrary to instructions (including yours clearly marked on the box!) DPD didn’t even ring the door bell nevermind leave in my chosen safe place; just left the box on my driveway. I was out. Luckily I got to it before the local foxes. Sadly don’t feel I can order again much as I would love to as I am out daily. Let me know if you ever change shipper
