Dry Cured Bacon

Our first meat product, developed in 1987, was Denhay Air Dried Ham, which was eaten like a prosciutto, but had a unique character of its own. Sadly we no longer produce this. Since then, as well as developing the Denhay range of bacon, Denhay Farm has developed their curing technique and produce award-winning bacon for Duchy Originals and the much acclaimed spoiltpig bacon which has been produced from animals reared on farms approved under the Freedom Food scheme and is featured on Delia online.

Dry Cured Bacon
In 1994, following requests from our customers for a really high quality Dry Cured Bacon, we started production. We researched a unique way of curing with sea salt which would give us a consistent product, not too salty, but able to bring out the full flavour of the meat. (Because no water is added, no white scum comes out in the pan). It involves attention to detail, something that we are prepared to give. We feel that our passion for producing something really special has created a bacon 'tasting like bacon used to taste'.

Denhay Dry Cured Bacon is available in both Back and Streaky, Smoked and Unsmoked and medium sliced.

A few comments made by customers during recent tastings: For more comments, please click here.

"This is how bacon used to taste in years gone by. Excellent taste, not salty."

"Beautiful rich flavour, nice thick meat, not too salty, excellent value pack, recipe info on pack."

"Appealing aroma and flavour. Remarkably adequate salt content and very dry which is why it was adored."

"They loved it, instead of excited children, it was middle aged men who couldn't wait for it to be cooked. They all agreed the flavour was great."
