Great Value Thick Sliced Bacon Hickory Smoked, 16 oz

Great bacon, not so strong a bacon flavor. Personally I like my bacon strong and while the texture and all is there , the flavor is lacking at times. My solution is to buy liquid smoke and put my bacon when I first buy it into ma "bacon containter" and add some hickory, or applewoood, or pecan liquid smoke. Shake it up and I have super awesome bacon at the fraction of the cost. I like my bacon as a side dish, no really on my salads and such, but in my eggs possibly but I love it in pico de gallo and the marinating take it up a level or two.

This is an excellent product from GV! The flavor of the Hickory is better than some other name brand bacons. The ratio of fat to meat is good, it cooks up well and I am very pleased with everything except the thicknesses. They range from thick to a regular size here and there, in one package,🙂

They ask about fat in the rating, but you have to pick through the bacon packages, as they always vary. I had an old man at the grocery store tell me he loved me because I was seeking the best bacon package, that was pretty funny. I mean, if you're a smart shopper, you're going to seek the best products and value for your family and to get your moneys worth. I love that this is a full pound, most big brands have gone to 12 oz packages and still ask the full price. Shrinkflation. That isn't this, thanks great value!

Wasn't sure about how to rate the fat content. lol No fattier than other brands. I cooked these in the oven. No preheat just parchment lined sheet pan and throw them in the oven and by the time the oven heats to 350 degrees its a mere minutes before bacon is done. And we like it cooked not rawish. Tastes the same as other more costly brands.

Our family likes to use this bacon for BLTs. We like the thick cuts. It has a hickory flavor. We like our bacon crispy and found that cooking it in the oven was the best way to get it as crispy as we like it. It is a little more fatty than some others but still has a good flavor. Good value for the price. Affordable on a family budget. Keto friendly.

It is labeled as THICK cut, but the slices are inconsistent. Some are really really thick and some are so thin you can see through them. They taste fine and are usually cheaper than any other brand. There is quite a bit of fat and there will be plenty of bacon dripping if you save that sort of thing.

Can no longer justify paying for this. especially when prices keep increasing. the last couple purchases have been exactly the same, it tastes like bacon but its toigher thanbeef jerky. when chewed it turns into dry splintery shreds. better off buying bacon bits as thry are less tough and about the same flavor, which is just sad.

I bought this item before and was very happy with it, that's way I bought it again. This time not so much! I tried to cook the first package and couldn't because it was too thin and each piece was barley connected in the middle and broke apart when placed on the frying pan. I threw it in the trash; it was a lost cause. I was able to cook and eat the second package. Neither package was Thick Cut! They were some of the thinnest bacon I have had. You can refund if you like or not, just want you to know about this product failure.

Not only is this bacon not thick every time, this pound was falling apart. Instead of slices, it was pieces , totally horrible quality and only good for filler. Certainly not good for bacon and eggs breakfasts or BLTs for lunch. I can buy pieces for half the price. Don't waste your money.

This pound of vegan was basically a pound of fat. There was very little meat at the very first beginning of the slice and the rest was all fat. I ended up throwing 3/4 of it away. I would like a refund I buy this all the time and I'm usually very satisfied, but this time I was very disappointed.
