About HARDWOOD SMOKED THICK SLICED BACON, HARDWOOD SMOKED
Meijer Hardwood Smoked Thick Sliced Bacon is a thick-gauge cured pork belly product offered under the Meijer store brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The thick sliced designation specifies a generous slice width that provides a meatier, more substantive bacon strip compared to standard-cut products, making it popular among consumers who prefer a chewier, less crispy bacon experience.
The curing formula consists of water, salt, sugar, sodium phosphate, sodium erythorbate, and sodium nitrite. Hardwood smoking is applied after curing to develop the characteristic Meijer smoked bacon flavor. No allergens are declared. The product contains no carbohydrates and is appropriate for low-carbohydrate, ketogenic, and gluten-free diets.
Per 100 grams, this product delivers approximately 550 calories, 35 grams of protein, no carbohydrates, and 45 grams of fat. The 20-gram serving size corresponds to a very thick slice, and the caloric density reflects both the thick cut and the full-belly fat content of pork belly. This is one of the higher-calorie Meijer bacon variants.
Best prepared from refrigerated state by oven-baking at 400°F for 18–22 minutes or pan-frying over medium heat with periodic turning to ensure even rendering. Thick sliced bacon works well in club sandwiches, brunch dishes, and as a primary protein component rather than a garnish.
