Not Thick Cut

I've purchased this bacon before at another store and received thick cuts of bacon. This bacon is very thin. It's even thinner than regular cut bacon. Very disappointed. I will not be purchasing again.

Not vacuum sealed

This bacon is always good but the online pick up experience was bad. The bacon was not airtight sealed or vacuum sealed and I don’t notice until I got home 50 minutes away.

Not Good

Very disappointed. Bacon is not thick sliced. It fried very poorly and instead of bacon grease, a milky watery white liquid came from it at first. It took forever to get crispy. I was actually a little concerned about eating it.

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!

Very High Quality

This bacon is reliably delicious and high quality. It is a must in our home. We bake it and it comes out better than any bacon on the market. I am a teacher and I eat breakfast and lunch in my class and this is perfect for bacon and egg or BLT sandwiches.

Thick and Juicy Black Label Bacon

Bacon Lovers, like myself, will truly lust over this fat pack of thickly cut, Black Label bacon. I don't want to get too crazy on here, but it is so fresh and thick, I wanted to cook it all at once. Sams Club sells this for an amazing price. This is also great for having guest over for the weekend! Cook it in the morning, and munch on it all day!

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!

Great if you want really, really thick bacon

It is very thick bacon. It also has a lot of fat and cooks down a lot. Taste is great. What bacon doesn't taste great? But I had a house full of kids and since this was so thick there were fewer pieces of bacon to go around. Probably go for something just a little less thick next time.

Great bacon!

Great bacon! I read an independent article rating bacon, and this particular Black Label was in the line-up of one of the best. I make a recipe with bacon-wrapped water chestnut and prune as an appetizer, and this bacon works perfectly for that. I also made another recipe with bacon/egg cups - made in cupcake tins. The bacon is perfect for that recipe as well. Very flavorful and has a nice ratio of bacon fat to meat. It is more meaty, but I love the bacon fat!

Missing Favorites

Love this bacon. Had a B&B when younger and used this bacon all the time. Then couldn't get it for a while. Then the last time I shopped at Sam's it was there, Thanks for bringing it back. Now if you would just get the bags of frozen pasta salad, the Krueazst muffin mix, and the large chicken pot pie back I would be so happy.
