Product Description

Unsmoked, dry cured rindless back bacon rashers.

Our Tesco Finest* dry cure bacon comes from British outdoor bred pigs, which give tasty, succulent pork. This pork comes from farms inspected to RSPCA welfare standards by the RSPCA's independently certified farm assurance scheme. Our traditional dry cure was developed for us by experts who first began curing back in 1828. Nearly 200 years later, it’s still cured by hand following the same method to bring out the rich flavour before air drying for a meaty texture.
*Traditionally dry cured by hand for a meaty texture and rich flavour.

Lean and tasty bacon

4 stars

Lean and tasty bacon, great for sandwiches or cooked breakfast.

Truly Awful!

1 stars

Truly awful bacon. wafer-WAFER-thin, so that it cooks hard in about a minute, and as everyone says, so much white goo (that's the injected water and fat emulsifying under heat) that by the time it's cooked I think the goop outweighs the meat. And as others say, it has a -very- strange chemical smell when cooking.

Too fatty

3 stars

Nice tasting bacon but very fatty. Have given this bacon a try a few times as it is meant to be Tesco Finest, but no, too fatty and end up losing a good piece of each rasher by the time the fat is cut off. Disappointing overall.

'Worst dry cure bacon i have ever had - horribe'

1 stars

Really awful bacon. Never had dry cure bacon so bad. Horrible white gunge came out when frying, unpleasant smell when being cooked. fat inedible, stayed chewy and no flavour. All in all the worst dry cure bacon I have ever had. I will not buy this again ... Does not even deserve one star!

Awful quality, am sure it’s not dry cured at all.

Awful quality, am sure it’s not dry cured at all. When cooked creamy water exudes from the rashers and goes black. My experience of decent dry cured bacon (not Tesco’s) cooks with ought this problem. Needs sorting out!!

British Bacon

4 stars

I bought this last week primary because it was British bacon.Very disappointed with it as just so much fat on the rashers, had to cut of a good quarter. But I did grill it and it does have a nice flavour.
