Cut directly from pork belly, this slice of fresh bacon stands out for its perfect balance between pink meat and pure white fat.
It is this natural alternation that guarantees exceptional juiciness and a melting texture after cooking.
To get the best out of it, I recommend slow cooking in a pan over low heat to render the fat, followed by browning over high heat to achieve a golden crust.
At Allaert Meat, we select pigs that are fed healthily to offer you bacon with a robust flavor, without excess water, which holds up perfectly under heat.
Whether grilled on the barbecue or incorporated into a slow-cooked dish, this cut brings a raw animal sweetness that gives body to your recipes.

Everything you need to know before you buy
FAQ about Slice of fresh bacon | 1000 g
What is the difference between fresh bacon and smoked bacon?
Fresh pork belly is raw, unsalted, and unsmoked pork. It has a pure, mild meaty taste, unlike smoked bacon which has undergone a curing and wood-smoking process. Fresh pork belly allows you to season the meat exactly as you wish and to control the salt content of your dish.
How to get crispy bacon without burning it?
The secret is to start cooking from cold. Place your slices in an unheated pan, without adding any fat, and turn the heat to low. The fat will slowly melt (this is called "rendering" the bacon). Once the fat has rendered, slightly increase the heat to brown the meat in its own fat until it reaches the desired crispiness.
Should you remove the rind before cooking?
As a butcher, I recommend leaving the rind on during cooking, especially if you're grilling or roasting the cut. It protects the meat from drying out and provides a gelatinous texture much appreciated by connoisseurs. If it bothers you when eating, simply remove it from your plate once the meat is cooked.
How to optimally store fresh bacon?
Fresh bacon should ideally be stored between 0°C and 4°C in the coldest part of your refrigerator, in its original packaging. Consume within three days of receipt. For extended storage, you can freeze it flat; it will retain its taste and texture for about three months.
What seasonings go best with this cut of pork?
The natural sweetness of pork fat calls for bold spices. Crushed black pepper, smoked paprika, or robust herbs like thyme and rosemary work wonderfully. A simple rub of sea salt and pepper just before cooking is often enough to enhance the product without masking its authentic taste.
Can fresh bacon be used for dishes in sauce or stews?
Absolutely. Cut into thick lardons, fresh pork belly is an exceptional base for starting a stew, a hotpot, or lentils. By browning it first, you create a rich cooking foundation that will flavor all your vegetables and broth with a rustic and gourmet depth.
