North Country Smokehouse, renowned for its award-winning artisanal smoked meats and steadfast commitment to ethical farming practices, proudly introduces its new Reduced Sodium, Organic Applewood Smoked Bacon, now available at Whole Foods Market locations nationwide.

This new, low-sodium recipe delivers on the brand's promise of bold flavor without compromise. Staying true to the smokehouse's signature approach, the pork bellies are marinated in real maple syrup and slow smoked in small batches for hours on end, creating a bacon that is naturally rich in flavor with less salt.

"Reduced sodium doesn't have to mean reduced flavor, we proved it,” said North Country Smokehouse Culinary Innovator, Chef Chris Mattera. "Our legacy is built on crafting bacon that delivers exceptional flavor, no matter the style."

As one of the few remaining family-owned smokehouses in America, North Country Smokehouse takes pride in overseeing every step from farm to fork. Their products are Certified Humane, non-GMO Organic, and raised without cages, crates, antibiotics, or added growth hormones, ensuring ethical and sustainable practices that comply with California Prop 12 standards.
