HORMEL® BLACK LABEL® Bacon and Frank’s RedHot® have joined forces to launch a limited-edition spicy bacon, blending smoky richness with the bold kick of hot sauce. The collaboration fuses both of the brand's iconic products, appealing to consumers who want to enjoy their breakfast with a little more spice.
To celebrate, the brands are launching the #OnEverythingChallenge, inviting fans to showcase their most creative bacon-and-hot-sauce dishes, whether that’s fiery ice cream, bacon-wrapped pickles, or spicy cupcakes. The most inventive entries will be sampled by pro football running back Aaron Jones, a self-proclaimed bacon and hot sauce enthusiast, during a live Instagram tasting event on November 11.
Interested parties can visit HORMEL to explore the brand's unique collaborations and core offerings.
