Best bacon brand

[mushroom 12,352]

Mate not mine has a food import/export business. I've convinced him bacon here is shit. So now he wants to import a load for the Spanish 5* hotel clients he has. He's asking me what brand I recommend but in truth I reckon it's better to get a general consensus...

Top 3 brands do you like and does it always have to be smoked? (Does for me).

Im the same cant anything other than smoked and has to be tulip bacon

[Accip74 7,112]

I can't even think of a brand name now. The best I had was never in a package, but that's probably not what you are after.

I usually just get co ops own brand

Same here I haven't had pre packed for yonks ....he'd be better finding a direct source but I know where he's coming from its nice to have a brand like HP colmans hinze ect

Lads the issue is it will have to be pre packed, bulk or whatever. The mercabana her (Google it) has everything but decent bacon.

He'll go direct to source

I thought pork/bacon was a national obsession over there and that spaniards reckon they are the world's connoisseurs of the stuff? Is it not a case of coals to Newcastle, or am  I missing something?

Spanish bacon is crap. Well the places i been. Looked like oblong  bits of spam

[Chid 6,374]

Galtey or Denny’s

A1 back bacon bought in bulk is pretty good but agree local sourced butchers or smokehouse bacon stands head and shoulders above most bulk dealers

bacon's a winner with the british but it's expensive plus the import costs.

devon rose in beer,devon is some of the best commercial stuff in my opinion.

your mate might struggle to get small producer stuff regulary.

Danepak ?

Surely bacon comes from pigs, and as such no specific brand can be best. It can only be as good as the quality of the product. Don't fuss about what wrapper the bacon has, just eat the blooming stuff. It's about what you eat it with.

Get your laughing gear round this lot. >>> https://www.google.co.uk/search?client=tablet-android-pega&biw=960&bih=600&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=830YWsDPCOHNgAbq0LbwDg&sjs=1&q=full+english+breakfast&oq=full+e&gs_l=mobile-gws-img.1.0.0l5.61667.68169.0.70617.18.9.1.0.0.0.1011.3073.2j1j1j2j6-1j1.8.0....0...1.1j4.64.mobile-gws-img..12.6.2836.3..35i39k1j0i67k1.104.2fhlMTic1Ig#imgrc=uzvCxkiqmSupfM:&isa=y
