Barbacon

bacon belongs to the hedonist, the throw-caution-to-the-winds sort who would eat a bacon sandwich with a side of bacon. bacon is an indulgence, the perfect combination of today’s two food taboos, salt and fat. however, rest assure your indulgence is not in vain, for bacon has a long rich history and by eating it you are supporting much of what makes america great. bacon “made in america” has always carried a label of quality, but not all bacon is made equal. bacon’s flavor, as with that of any charcuterie, directly reflects the meat that is being cured, so great bacon always starts with great pork belly most often from small farms.
