FAQ

  • Why is bacon so delicious? The unique salty, sweet and umami-rich harmony of flavors combined with rich protein and high fat content are fantastic when eaten alone or added to your favorite dishes.
  • What type of bacon is best? Much like pizza, it's all good, and up to personal preference. I prefer thick-cut to thin. Try local, artisanal bacon.
  • What is Dr. Bacon's preferred method of cooking bacon? In most cases, I prefer to cook thick cut and well seasoned bacon on a pellet smoker such as a Traeger at 225 degrees for around two hours. The fat absorbs both the flavors from the rub and the fired wood to create a truly craveable experience.
