TRADITIONAL WOOD SMOKED MEATS.Try this award winning chemical nitrate free bacon made from West Australian free range pork.
At Paddock to Plate WA they like to do things the old fashioned way. They follow centuries old traditional methods and slowly smoke their meats over real wood. It’s the only way to create an authentic flavour. This dry cured bacon might take longer to prepare, but it gives the best flavour and texture to your rashers!
They use Margaret River apple wood, pecan wood and beech wood to create the sweet delicate smoke flavour.
What Does Chemical Nitrate Free Mean?
To preserve their ham and bacon, they use natural vegetable extracts to preserve the meat. This means they don’t have to add chemical nitrate – usually called Preservative 250 or sodium nitrate 250.
Nitrates occur naturally in many vegetables, such as celery and broccoli and this is where we consume most of them. Replacing the chemical nitrate with vegetable extracts means they use the smallest amount of nitrate, and in a natural form.
