Use to be better

The last 2 or 3 times I bought this bacon has been somewhat disappointing. More fat than anything. Bacon is fatty thats for sure but its come to a point that I felt I paid $14.98 each time for just fat.Will i buy again, probably my household loves bacon. There use to be a time where there was a good combination of meat and fat, now its almost all fat. The strips you see out side the package has some meat but the rest is all fat.

My First Choice In Bacon

Wright Thick Cut Applewood Bacon has become my favorite brand of baxon. I like to cook it in the oven and the fat part just melts in my mouth. Sometimes I even add a mixture of honey and brown sugar on top when I want a sweet bacon. Can't go wrong with Wright Brand.

Lacks quality control.

This bacon comes in two 2# packages. In one package is top quality bacon that has an equal proportion of pork and fat. The other package is just mediocre bacon that isn't as wide or long as the first package. Plus the strips of bacon are mostly fat. We've bought this bacon numerous times and it's always the same.

They ruined this bacon

Prior to purchasing this brand bacon in November 2023, the bacon used to cook up nice and thick. Now they clearly figured out how to water log the bacon because it now cooks down to the same thickness as regular bacon. I cannot believe for a milisecond anyone else hasnt noticed the same thing who normally purchased this Wright brand bacon as I have for at least (10) years. Now they ruined my favorite bacon. Seems now adays they are so fiendish for making every penny they care 0% about quality. Dont be fooled, Wright bacon thick cut looks thick before cooking, but it no longer stays thick. I think that the consumers need to demand No More saline solutions added to meat.

this bacon is crazy expensive

Recovery from even leanest store bacon is like 25-30%. Rest is lost in pan in grease unless you have some use for it. So this over priced bacon at $4.25/lb raw equates to like $12.75/lb cooked. Can buy USDA prime ribeye steak for that price. Hmm. What's in your skillet?

Doesn’t taste the same

I haven’t bought this in a while now doesn’t cook the way it use to when it was in the meat market two years ago. Doesn’t seem to have that nice crispy golden brown melt in your mouth texture anymore something is different about it but it looks the same I buy it every so often to see if it turned to the good one again but it hasn’t. I’m gonna try again today but it sure has changed

NOT 4 lbs as advertised

Been purchasing this bacon for a long time and it has gone up in price and down on quality. Picked one up curbside yesterday and when I got home I was going to put one in freezer and one in frig.. when I cut the package in half I realized one of them was half the size. I weighed it and it came to 2.8 lbs. NO WHERE CLOSE TO 4 LBS ADVERTISED PRICE and definitely NOT worth $25.

Best Bacon in the Store!

Great flavor, cooks up well, smells good. Sometimes it might be cut a little weird, but I try to pick out the packages that look best. In my opinion, this has a much better flavor than the hickory bacon. As of 1/20/2024, we haven't seen it in the store. Please get more in the store!

I have bought this 2 times now and both times it has had a sour flavor. It was not expired, but was close. It looked great, smelled great. I really wanted to like it, but it seems it has been bad both times. The color is still red or pinkish, but it is very slimy on the outside. I just hoped it was the flavoring that was slimy and this was normal, but both times it has had a strong sour flavor. This morning I ate some and was tired afterwards. I took a nap and when I woke up, I was dizzy. I do not know that it was from the bacon and I really hope it was not bad, but because this has been my experience both times now, I will not buy this bacon again. The bacon is very expensive and seems like a very good quality, but I am worried it is bad. I don't know if the sour flavor is normal(maybe from the applewood?) and the sliminess on the outside is normal(maybe from the flavoring?). I am not comfortable buying it again.

Mmm!

We love Wrights bacon but purchasing from a grocery store got really expensive so we stopped. Went home for the holidays and forgot the bacon and nephew saved breakfast with this humongous pack that he got from Sam’s. Yeah, it’s $22 but it’s also 4 pounds! It’s best in the air fryer
