That’s why more and more restaurant operators are turning to OLD SMOKEHOUSE^® Hardwood Smoked Bacon – a product built on devotion, craftsmanship and an unwavering commitment to quality. This is bacon that’s more than just a topping or a side – it’s a centerpiece.

It Starts With Better Ingredients and Smarter Cuts

From the beginning, OLD SMOKEHOUSE^® Hardwood Smoked Bacon is crafted with precision. The finely tuned process begins with fresh, never frozen, center-cut bellies that are trimmed to ultra-tight specs. The result? A bacon that is made to perform in your kitchen and on the plate.  It has an ideal lean-to-fat ratio, consistent from edge to edge, delivering that perfect strip every time.

This bacon delivers subtle flavor nuances and a rich, balanced profile in every bite. Each belly is hand-rubbed with a thoughtful blend of carefully selected seasonings. Some rubbed with pure cane sugar or cracked black pepper and cured with real Vermont Maple Syrup.  Every detail is intentional to bring out sweet, savory, smoky or smooth flavors.

Smoke That Goes the Extra Mile

What sets OLD SMOKEHOUSE^® Hardwood Smoked Bacon apart is the time and care invested into every batch.  We’re talking double—even triple—smoke cycles, lasting up to 12 hours over 100% real hardwood chips.

When’s the last time you committed to something for 12 hours?

That extended smoke time builds an unmistakable aroma and deep, crave-worthy flavor that draws customers in—and keeps them coming back. This isn’t your average smoked bacon. It’s a product that’s impossible to ignore.

Because perfection takes time. And time tastes incredible.
