Prairie Fresh, a trusted name in fresh pork, is bringing its signature quality and taste to one of America’s favorite foods — bacon. The new line of naturally hardwood-smoked bacon, crafted for rich, savory flavor in every bite, is now available in Applewood-Smoked, Hickory-Smoked and Hickory-Smoked Thick-Cut varieties. Prairie Fresh’s Bacon delivers the delicious taste and reliable quality that consumers have come to expect.

The introduction of bacon to Prairie Fresh’s portfolio reinforces its commitment to delivering great-tasting pork with uncompromising quality. Backed by a connected food system called the Prairie Fresh Way and a legacy in bacon processing, Prairie Fresh is well-positioned to compete in the $7 billion bacon category, which boasts 74% household penetration and the highest sales of any processed meat.

“Prairie Fresh Bacon delivers the flavor, quality and consistency that today’s shoppers are craving, backed by the same connected food system that’s earned our brand trust across retail and foodservice,” said Emma Pierce, senior brand manager for Prairie Fresh’s Bacon. “This launch meets rising demand in a category where brand-switching is high and value and transparency matter more than ever.”

Prairie Fresh’s Bacon is:

• Naturally hardwood-smoked with real hickory or apple woods
• Made in the USA from pork sourced from Prairie Fresh Way farms and processing plants located in the United States
• Crafted with a signature cure trusted by leading national foodservice chains
• Offered in 12-ounce and 16-ounce L-board packages

The launch is supported by Prairie Fresh’s “Now THAT’S Pork.” campaign, digital and social advertising, influencer partnerships and on-pack QR codes linking to recipe inspiration.

With 80% of fresh pork buyers also purchasing bacon and a clear shift toward smaller pack sizes, Prairie Fresh’s Bacon hits the mark on consumer trends and quality expectations.
