Spicy-Sweet Smoked Meat

The Habanero Maple Bacon is a Delicious Treat for Breakfast

People's love for bacon continues to rise to new levels with the help of creations such as the Habanero Maple Bacon. Combining spicy and sweet, it is a smoked meat that will make a delicious treat for breakfast, not to mention any other meal throughout the day.

Created by the good folks at Tender Belly in Denver, Colorado, the Habanero Maple Bacon is lathered with their signature maple and habañero spice rub. The hunk of meat is then dry curde and smoked to perfection over cherrywood. Tender Belly writes, "We spare no expense with ingredients, process or time to give you the best possible product."

Sold in bulk for a discount, the Habanero Maple Bacon is not only perfect for the home, but summer getaways at the cottage as well.
