About HARDWOOD SMOKED THICK CUT BACON, HARDWOOD SMOKED
Kroger Hardwood Smoked Thick Cut Bacon is a thick-sliced cured pork belly product from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger private label, formulated with a wet cure brine of water, salt, sugar, sodium phosphate, sodium erythorbate, and sodium nitrite. This entry represents the same thick cut bacon formulation as related Kroger SKUs, differing in minor packaging or data submission details rather than composition. The product undergoes hardwood smoking following the curing process.
Thick cut bacon provides a more pronounced textural experience than standard-cut slices due to the increased thickness, resulting in a crisp exterior with a chewy, meaty center when cooked properly. The hardwood smoking process contributes a more pronounced smoke aroma and flavor than liquid smoke-treated products, which is a key selling point of thick cut premium bacon products.
Per 100 grams, this product provides 600 calories, 40 grams of protein, zero carbohydrates, and 50 grams of fat — consistent with other thick cut Kroger bacon entries. No allergens beyond pork are declared. Not suitable for pork-free, halal, or kosher diets. No wheat, soy, dairy, eggs, nuts, or sesame are present. Sodium nitrite is the curing agent. This product is widely used in premium breakfast preparations, gourmet sandwiches, brunch recipes, and as a flavor component in soups, chilis, and grain dishes across Kroger-family supermarket locations.
