About HARDWOOD SMOKED THICK CUT BACON, HARDWOOD SMOKED
Meijer Hardwood Smoked Thick Cut Bacon is a thick-sliced cured pork belly bacon offered under the Meijer store brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. This variant features a 12-gram serving size, indicating a slightly thinner thick-cut slice relative to some companion SKUs, while still representing a gauge meaningfully thicker than standard Meijer bacon.
The curing agents are water, salt, sugar, sodium phosphates, sodium erythorbate, and sodium nitrite. Hardwood smoke is applied to the cured belly after brining to deliver the smoked bacon flavor. No allergens are present. The product is carbohydrate-free and suitable for low-carb dietary approaches.
Per 100 grams, this product delivers approximately 500 calories, 41.7 grams of protein, no carbohydrates, and 37.5 grams of fat. The higher protein-to-fat ratio compared to some other Meijer thick cut SKUs suggests this particular packaging or lot was cut from a leaner pork belly section or received a more aggressive fat trim, resulting in leaner strips per gram of product.
This bacon is suitable for all conventional bacon preparation methods. The thicker cut allows for a firmer, chewier texture when cooked to medium-crisp, making it well-suited for hearty sandwiches, breakfast plates, and garnish applications where the bacon strips need to maintain structural integrity.
