So, pork is pork right?

I've tried all kinds of bacon from various companies but the flavor, texture and thickness of this Hormel Black Label bacon has the perfect balance of what bacon needs to be. Yes, I'm serious about my bacon and that's why I buy Hormel Black Label!

Salty bacon

Bought two three pound packages at my local Sams store in Springfield Il. to add a little extra smoke to it in my smoker for the holidays. Decided to try some of it way to salty! Been trying to wash it in some water prior to cooking it seems to help a little but still very disappointed.

NOT THICK CUT

When we purchased this Bacon we thought we were getting a THICK CUT as it says on package NO I don't think it could be cut any thinner. It was ok to cook up as scraps for salads but for a BLT or Breakfast NO way too thin I didn't want to chance it on the grill as I usually cook Bacon

I wanted to love.

I did not like this bacon. It cooked either too raw or too burnt. I couldnt find a perfect medium for it. Maybe its me. Maybe I suck. But I've cooked other bacon and it cooked evenly perfectly. This bacon did not cook evenly for me. Very sad because its such a great deal!!!!

Hormel bacon Disaster

I bought this yesterday and I tried to cook it in the microwave just like it said on the box and the first slide of bacon was a terrible disaster. Now I am trying my George former grill and it's not that bad. You could never get the picture on the box. This is not my first encounter with this situation with you bacon.

Excellent quality at a reasonable price that...

This product has been consistently excellent quality. We have always made a great impression for our diners! The price is reasonable and per serving it’s easier that managing thin cut bacon. Usually we pan it on parchment and cook with a convection oven. Strips are consistent providing consistent cook times!

Best qualify bacon I've purchased

This is the best quality bacon I've purchased. I would not let the large quantity stop you from buying it because you can always divide it and put it quality storage bags. We use our vacuum sealer, which is great because it will keep the bacon fresh for weeks without having to freeze it.

Best thick-cut bacon around

This is not only a great value, but it is legitimately our favorite bacon. I used to get whatever thick-cut I could find from Kroger or Aldi, but this offers much more for the price. Then o tried some in my ButcherBox thinking it would be superior, but we couldn’t wait to finish that pack so that we could go back to our Members Mark thick cut!

Inconsistent slices

I opened a package of this bacon tonight to use in a BLT salad. The first slice was almost as thick as a thin-cut pork chop, and the rest of the slices were so thin they fell apart as I pulled them out of the package. I baked the bacon and it cooked unevenly - some pieces were done way before others, due to the inconsistent thickness of the bacon. So disappointing.

Good deal bacon

We always buy this bacon at Sam’s Club. It comes in a big package, perfect for the whole family, and lasts a week or longer. Honestly, the quality depends on the cuts, so try to pick one with less fat and more meat. I like the taste, and the stripe thickness is just right.
