5.0 out of 5 stars A Beacon for Bacon, November 9, 2005

Neuske's Bacon is simply the most divine bacon eating experience you'll ever have. Smoked in Wisconsin over applewood, it is delectable, luscious even. They cut it lean so that there is no rubbery, fatty bits like you find in store-bought brands, yet they leave enough in to give it that robust flavor. It is worth noting that America's Test Kitchen did a Taste Test of Bacon, in which Neuske's was a participant. It did NOT come out as No.1, because tasters thought it was "too smoky". If you like smoky bacon like I do, that sounds like crazy talk, and you should definitely try this bacon. The results of the taste test indicates to me that there are those who prefer their bacon less smoky, and I suppose that if you are one of those people, you may not like this bacon after all (even thought it is the best ever).

Be careful though: once you eat Neuske's and love it, you won't be satisfied with store-bought ever again!

In addition to making great bacon, the people at Nueske's deserve extra credit for putting their customers first. I sent my first gift order for this sampler, and because of the rain in LA heading into Christmas, it didn't make it to my friend's house on the scheduled delivery date. He was taking off for the Holidays, and Nueske's customer service responded immediately to my whiny complaint by offering to resend the gift when he returns. Nice people, and men just love this gourmet bacon. Will definitely use them again next Xmas!
