Never seen it this thick before. You get five slices per package, but each slice is 1/4lb each
Found at Meijers near Indianapolis.

I picked some up the other week, and im not sure if I cooked it right. It just wasn’t very good at all.

Ooofff, this feels so American haha. Id treat it like Guanciale cube it or cut it perpendicular into like match sticks fry it so you get a crisp outs but still meaty inside. Think steak potatoes.

If I was going to pan sear them I would put a bunch of water in the pan with it. Should render the fat and then evaporate to crisp it up in the end. My other thought would be to smoke it and then reverse sear it. I’ve never tried that stuff before so good luck and report back.

This is just ill advised. You aren’t supposed to eat cured meat like that. I say this as someone who goes to Benton’s country hams twice a year to stock up, there is a thing as too much bacon.

I lived in Germany for a bit. Thick cuts of uncured bacon/belly meat was popular for summertime grilling.

I miss when they were selling it unsliced.
