The Maple-Candied Bacon Jerky

Allen would pack it for the road.

Dacius would eat half the bag standing over the table and then ask, with no shame at all, whether there was more.

The Maple-Candied Bacon Jerky is a shelf-stable sweet-and-savory bacon snack made with uncured, thick-cut smoked bacon glazed with organic maple syrup and maple sugar. It takes two things that already make nearly everything better — bacon and maple — and turns them into a ready-to-eat pantry treat, road snack, breakfast side, burger topper, salad upgrade, baked bean miracle, or “just one piece” situation that does not remain one piece for long.

This is not delicate food. This is provisions food. It belongs in camp bags, gift baskets, brunch boards, cabin weekends, road trip snack piles, Father’s Day gifts, and the pantry shelf you go back to when dinner needs one very convincing finishing touch.

Made by Maple Craft Foods, this bacon jerky begins with the same maple-minded care behind their award-winning New England syrups. Maple Craft Foods was established in Sandy Hook, Connecticut in 2014 after the founders began harvesting maple sap from trees at their homes in Connecticut and Vermont in 2001. Their products are built around healthier connections with food, nature, family, and community, using premium maple ingredients and a uniquely New England network of makers, agricultural partners, and small-business support.

The bacon is uncured, thick cut, smoked, and made without added nitrates or nitrites, artificial sweeteners, or preservatives. It is shelf-stable, gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, nut-free, soy-free, and made in the United States.

Eat it straight from the bag like jerky, serve it with breakfast, crumble it over burgers or salads, tuck it into baked beans, pair it with pancakes, or use it anywhere maple and bacon would make the meal better.

Which is, frankly, most places.
