Brown Sugar Bacon Jerky Candied Bacon

I've seen some negative reviews for this, posted based on how long it takes to get this item. First of all, it does show that it usually takes about two weeks to ship, it gives you the estimate when you buy it. And its always somewhere between 2 and 3 weeks. I was told that they make each order from scratch, which is why it takes so long. So yeah, it DOES take awhile to get it, and if you're in a hurry or not willing to wait, then this stuff is not for you. That's the only down side I found. But if you CAN wait, and are patient, and love bacon. Then I really don't know how else to put it, other than this is some of the best bacon I've ever tasted. This isn't just food, it's a delicacy. What they say about the perfect marriage of sweet and salty is so very true. Its true you only get six pieces. Which makes the total price and more than a dollar per piece of bacon. It's WORTH it. Like some other reviewers, it didn't last long. We ordered six bags and it didn't last a day. My family and I devoured it. It is like melt in your mouth savory and sweet and wonderful. I've now ordered twice, and the second order was 10 bags. LOL Overall, despite the long shipping time, its well worth the wait. I've never tasted better candied bacon. If you're a bacon lover, or love getting maple syrup on your bacon, then this product is for you. It doesn't have an overwhelming maple taste, its just right. Perfect. Give it a try, and I don't think you'll be disappointed. Thanks!

Probably my saddest bacon experience ever. I love bacon. I have had a lot of mediocre bacon. Hotel bacon. Precooked bacon. Bacon from a can. Bacon from a bag. Questionable bacon. Sad restaurant bacon...but I have never been as disappointed by a bacon as I have by this one. One of my favorite podcasts rapsodised wildly about this product so I had high hopes for it. It certainly looks delicious in the picture, all dark golden brown. Glazed to a perfect caramelized deliciosness. Look at how proudly they stand up in their homey glass jars. This is a bacon that does a pig proud. That is not what arrived by along shot. What arrived was thickish slabs of limp pig. In fact the only way that I could have gotten what arrived to look like that picture was by backing it with plywood and shellacking the whole thing in 5-6 coats of varnish. The product that arrived was unpleasantly greasy with sugar crystals that might have seen an oven long enough to be terrified into staying put on the slick surface. The entire inside of the bag felt like it had been used by a grease elemental as a sauna. The bacon was flabby. One entire slice was essentially inedible because it was simply one long strip of undercooked fat. No meat just fat. Had I chosen to I could have likely squeezed enough grease out of it to fry an entire pan of potatoes and likely an egg or three. There is absolutely no excuse for a pig to suffer for this product.

Treat. Good quality. Wish there was more in package - greedy! They should make it chocolate covered as well!

While I thought the product was very tasty; I sadly have to dock it two stars just because of how long it took to arrive, and the small portion compared to the price. I wasn't paying attention to the estimated arrival time and that's on me, but some sugar slathered bacon strips shouldn't take almost a month and a half to arrive (I ordered on August 29th and they arrived on October 10th). My tracking also didn't update until to day of arriving, but I don't know if that is just me

1st of all the photos on Amazon look amazing. What was sent was totally different..looks like limp uncooked bacon. Flimsy gelatinous not crispy bacon that caramelized and "candy" Definitely not what I expected. Can't return it because it's food. Taste good. Texture is gross. I am going to re cook it.. might help. You really should post realistic pictures. You should also resend a batch to me that is actually what you advertised ... I would update the review if it actually delivered as how it is represented. Disappointed I feel bad giving you this review... I know this is your business... I wish you would have been more accurate in your description.

This is so unfortunately delicious, because for the amount per bag the cost is simply to high for it to be a reasonable product. Again, don't get me wrong, probably the best bacon I've ever had - but a single bag contains something like 4-5 strips of bacon. I'd love to give it 5 stars, but $10.64 (cost + shipping) is just too much. That said, if money is no object for you, and you love sweet bacon treats -> this stuff right here is delicious beyond compare and gets slightly cheaper if you order in massive bulk. If money is a concern, make this at home, it may not come out the same but it's essentially brown sugar and bacon.

First of all, if you're looking for candied bacon that looks like that picture, this is not it. If you've had candied bacon before- fresh candied bacon- this is also not it. This is more accurately, as they have specified, candied bacon jerkey. Imagine a piece of very tender beef jerkey. Now imagine this jerkey having been coated in a layer of brown sugar glaze. Like most classic candied bacon recipes, there was an added layer of brown sugar sprinkled onto it. Expect that. This is not a firm piece of candied bacon either. Like I said, it's very tender brown sugar bacon jerkey. It's a good stand in for candied bacon, overall, especially when you're just sort of on the go and craving the real deal. The sweetness is stereotypical for a "candied product" and I don't mind it personally. The portion is sort of small, but then again, I understand why after having made candied bacon for years myself. Not bad for the price, honestly. The shipping speed was pretty good. Arrived in 2 weeks because I'm in Asia and that is actually VERY fast.

The product is very tasty, and almost what I had expected. I say, “almost” because it’s really not what I’d call jerky at all. This is sweetened, cooked bacon; like the bacon you’d get at a breakfast restaurant, but it’s been sweetened. It is yummy, but it’s flimsy, not crispy, and not as thick cut, or hard and chewy as the mainstream jerky. So, as mentioned, it’s good; would I buy it again? I’m not sure, really. The price is fair; you get about 6-7 strips of bacon, but everything is expensive now, so I won’t complain about the price. However, it’s not what I’d call inexpensive; it’s about $2 per strip.
