Comfort food, coming right up. This cheesy, melty sandwich is the stuff of chilly-day dreams; a sandwich to be eaten during time spent with a cozy gathering of friends or while curled up with a book… food made for winter holidays.

Traditional spaghetti carbonara is made with pancetta and heavy on the fresh-cracked black pepper, so we make ours with Applewood Smoked Pepper Coated Bacon, which covers all the bases and adds some extra sweet, smokiness to the dish.
BLT season is almost upon us.

A few weeks back, on Twitter, Grub Report shared what seemed to us to be a pretty good idea: They took a recent gift of Pimento Cheese, made a sandwich out of it, and fried that sandwich in Nueske’s bacon fat. People come to us with terrific ideas for our bacon – and its leavings – on a […]

We’ll have loads of food, music, prizes, and family-friendly fun… and if it rains, we have many large tents to keep you dry and shelter the weekend’s festivities. Event […]
Our Applewood Smoked Pepper-Coated Bacon is a terrific bacon for cooking with, especially this time of year. We create our “pepper bacon” just like our classic Applewood Smoked Bacon; with specially-selected, hand-trimmed bellies that get our signature long, slow smoke in the Nueske family’s smokehouses, over glowing embers of sweet Wisconsin applewood. The step that […]
