MKONO Farm Jowl Bacon
Deeply flavorful and beautifully traditional, MKONO Farm Jowl Bacon is a true butcher’s cut prized for its rich marbling and silky texture. Crafted from the pork cheek — one of the most coveted sections for flavor — this bacon delivers a savory depth that chefs and culinary enthusiasts quietly seek out.
Our heritage pigs are pasture-raised on regenerative land, allowed to root, roam, and grow at a natural pace. That care translates directly into the meat, where abundant marbling creates jowl bacon that renders slowly, crisps delicately, and finishes with a luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth bite.
Slightly richer than traditional belly bacon, jowl bacon brings a refined character to any dish. Use it to elevate breakfast, enrich slow-cooked greens, layer into pasta, or build the kind of sandwich that doesn’t need an introduction.
Why It Stands Apart:
• Exceptionally rich, heritage pork flavor
• Beautiful natural marbling
• Small-batch crafted
• Pasture-raised with regenerative practices
• A favorite among chefs for its depth and versatility
This is bacon for those who understand that the finest flavor often comes from the cuts less traveled — thoughtfully raised, carefully prepared, and worthy of the table.
