    Cooking Instructions

    How to Cook Loin of Bacon Joint

    Remove the bacon joint from the fridge around 30 minutes before cooking. Place in a roasting tin and cover loosely with foil.

    Cook in a preheated oven at 180°C / 160°C fan / Gas 4 for approximately 30 minutes per 500g, plus an extra 20 minutes.

    Remove the foil for the final 20–30 minutes to allow the outside to colour. Cook until piping hot throughout, then rest for 10–15 minutes before carving.

    Product FAQs

    Frequently asked questions about this product:

    What is a loin of bacon joint?

    A loin of bacon joint is a whole cured pork loin rather than sliced bacon rashers. It is cut from the same part of the pig used for back bacon and is ideal for roasting and carving.

    Is a bacon loin joint the same cut as back bacon?

    Yes. Back bacon is cut mainly from the pork loin, and this joint is essentially the whole cured loin before it has been sliced into rashers.

    What is the difference between a bacon loin joint and a gammon joint?

    Both are cured pork, but they come from different cuts. A bacon loin joint comes from the loin and is generally leaner, while gammon is usually cut from the hind leg and has a slightly different texture and shape.

    Can I choose smoked or unsmoked?

    Yes. Our loin of bacon joint is available either smoked for a deeper flavour or unsmoked for a milder cured-pork taste.

    Can I serve a bacon loin joint cold?

    Yes. It can be served hot as a roasting joint or chilled after cooking and sliced cold for sandwiches, salads and cold plates.

    Can I freeze bacon?

    Yes. This bacon is delivered fresh and is suitable for home freezing. For convenience, divide larger packs into your preferred portions before freezing and defrost thoroughly in the refrigerator before cooking.
