A superbly favoured, naturally marbled, traditional streaky bacon made properly.
This is the perfect bacon for a hearty brunch, a BLT sandwich, or to wrap around leaner meats when roasting to keep them moist.
London Smoke & Cure start with heritage breed pork sourced from a small farm in North Yorkshire, which is then cured with a mix of salts and botanicals (pepper, juniper & bay), and then air-dried it for at least three weeks, during which time it gets gently smoked in two stages, a week apart.
This ageing process is key to the incredible flavour of the bacon. Where most producers actively inject brine into their bacon, London Smoke & Cure strive to reduce the moisture content in order to really develop the intensity of the savoury flavours.
This is the real deal: handmade, artisanal bacon that follows traditional techniques perfected over the centuries.
Available in two pack sizes: 170g or 700g.
London Smoke & Cure began in a Crystal Palace garden in 2015, when Ross and Jamie started smoking salmon in an old kitchen cabinet and never really stopped. Today the operation runs from a converted railway arch at Spa Terminus in Bermondsey, but the guiding principle hasn't changed: start with something good, take your time, make it properly. Their sashimi-grade Scottish salmon is cold-smoked to a natural, gently smoky finish that won Good Housekeeping's Best Smoked Salmon two years running, while the charcuterie range is air-dried using the same patient, small-batch approach.
