Your Questions, Answered
Dry aged bacon is a little different from what you’ll find at most grocery stores. Here’s what that means, why it matters, and what makes Jones bacon worth knowing.
What is dry aged bacon?
Dry aged bacon is bacon that has been cured and aged in a controlled environment without the use of added water or liquid brine. During the dry aging process, moisture is drawn out of the meat naturally, which concentrates the flavor and improves the texture. The result is a richer, more complex bacon than what most people are used to. Jones Dairy Farm dry ages bacon for up to three weeks.
What does dry aging do to bacon?
Dry aging intensifies the natural flavor of the pork by removing excess moisture and allowing the meat to develop a deeper, more concentrated taste.
What is the difference between dry aged and regular bacon?
Most commercially produced bacon is wet cured, meaning it’s injected with a brine solution to speed up the curing process and add weight. Dry aged bacon skips the added liquid entirely, relying on time and controlled conditions to develop flavor naturally. The difference shows up in the taste, texture, and the way it cooks — dry aged bacon renders more cleanly and delivers a bolder, more authentic flavor.
What is cherrywood smoking?
Cherrywood smoking is a method of slow smoking meat using chips of cherrywood, a fruitwood known for producing a mild, sweet smoke. Unlike stronger hardwoods like hickory or mesquite, cherrywood imparts a subtle, slightly sweet smokiness that complements the natural flavor of the meat without overpowering it. Jones Dairy Farm smokes bacon for over 8 hours.
What makes center cut bacon different?
Center cut bacon comes from the middle section of the pork belly, which produces strips with a higher ratio of meat to fat compared to standard bacon cuts. The result is a leaner, more uniform slice that cooks more evenly. Jones Cherrywood Smoked Dry Aged Bacon is center cut, meaning you get less fat and more of what makes bacon worth eating.
Is Jones Cherrywood Smoked Dry Aged Bacon gluten free?
Yes. Jones Cherrywood Smoked Dry Aged Bacon is Certified Gluten-Free, meaning it has been independently verified to meet strict gluten free standards. It is also free from the Big 9 allergens, making it a safe choice for households managing multiple food sensitivities.
