According to Excalibur’s R&D Manager, Certified Food Scientist & Chemist Tyler Shepke, bacon is an example of flavor trends where traditional profiles have staying power while also moving toward new ideas.

“We are seeing many bacon products with maple and hickory smoke flavors,” Shepke says. “However, there is also a trend towards using alternative sugar sources that impart subtle differences in taste and carmelization when cooked. Unique smoked and charred flavors that are not traditionally used are also being incorporated with bacon.”

Some of our feature flavors include:

• Bacon BBQ is a dream come true for bacon lovers and BBQ enthusiasts alike. The smoky goodness of our classic smokehouse BBQ with the irresistible flavor of hickory smoked bacon is a match made in heaven.
• Hickory Smoked Bacon Flavored Salt is a versatile rich and sweet blend packed with flavor. Apply it to anything from your favorite snacks to a center plate entrée. This blend will also enhance your favorite cocktail or mocktail when used as a rim seasoning salt.
• Sweet Maple Bacon Snack Stick is a twist on the bacon craze and sets itself apart with excellent maple flavor and classic Bacon flavor. Use beef, pork, or wild game with this seasoning. Add up to one pound of bacon ends for enhanced flavor
