All crisp, no fuss. Our dry cured streaky unsmoked bacon is hand-salted the traditional way—no added water—so it fries, not boils, and delivers pure pork flavour with beautifully crispy edges. Cut from the belly for that classic streak of fat, it cooks fast in the pan, under the grill or in the air fryer. Ideal for breakfasts, BLTs, wrapping roasts and adding savoury crunch to salads and pasta.

FAQs
Why choose dry cured? No added water—rashers brown properly and taste richer.
Streaky vs back? Streaky has more fat for super crisp results; back is leaner.
Can I cook from frozen? Defrost first for even cooking and best texture.
Is it salty? Well-seasoned rather than harsh—balance with fresh bread, tomatoes or a squeeze of lemon.
