Steakhouse Seared Bacon Slab

Bacon as the Main Event

Bacon rarely gets top billing on a menu. It supports the burger, garnishes the salad, or rides shotgun on the breakfast plate. This concept flips that, treating a seared slab of Jones Dairy Farm Fully Cooked Sous Vide Bacon Slab like a center-of-plate protein, plated with the same composition and polish as a steak, without the steak price point. 

The Menu Concept

The Jones Difference

The slab arrives dry aged and fully cooked, so the kitchen isn’t managing a long roast or worrying about shrink. The sear is purely for color and crust. That means faster ticket times and a consistent, deep flavor on every plate, with 100% usable yield instead of the pan loss operators expect from raw slab bacon.

Chef’s Notes

Sear the slab straight from the cooler for the sharpest contrast between the crisp exterior and the tender interior. Apply the Dijon citrus glaze after the sear, not before, so the sugars in the glaze don’t scorch under high heat. Fry the Brussels sprout leaves to order. Held leaves lose their crunch fast and drag the whole plate down.
