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!

Yum! My husband loved the bacon sampler! It is some of the best bacon we have ever had:)

I bought the sampler pack for my bf for Christmas and we've already gone through it all. We both agreed that the pepper was the best. Thick cut cooks a lot better than the thin in our cast iron skillet. I will definitely be ordering more!

Arrived way before Christmas and, luckily, was opened and refrigerated. Enjoyed by all during the holidays.

Fantastic bacon. It hardly shrinked at all when cooked and there wasn't a pan full of grease afterwards. My wife found it too smokey flavored for her taste but I thought it was great. We haven't tried the peppered bacon yet but looking forward to it. This is expensive bacon as one reviewer complained about so it's not something you would have every weekend. As an occasional treat though it's probably the best bacon I have ever had.

We bought this bacon sampler for a daughter who loves, loves, loves, bacon!
She was so pleased with this! It was delivered as promised and I wouldn't hesitate to order more.

When you factor in the shipping ($15.00!), why you're "forking-out" $45.00...$15.00 per lb.! Hot Damn. Isn't there ANY bacon near you, that's acceptable, and cheaper? It may be the best...butt NOT at the price.

This is simply the best bacon I have ever eaten. It fries nice and is delicious! I think it well worth the price.
