Imitation Bacon Unit Seasoning

Imitation Bacon Unit (No MSG)

Bring rich bacon flavor to ground meat products with this Imitation Bacon Seasoning. Ideal for making restructured bacon-style products, it allows you to create a sliceable bacon alternative using beef, pork, or wild game. Mix in the seasoning with cure and form into a loaf or stuff into casings, then slice and cook just like traditional bacon for breakfast, sandwiches, salads, or more.

A specialty bacon-style seasoning expertly designed to produce a restructured loaf product that closely delivers the flavor, appearance, and satisfying eating experience of traditional bacon. Built with real smoke, brown sugar, essential curing ingredients, and functional proteins, this blend creates a rich bacon character with excellent slicing performance and mouthfeel. Designed to produce consistent bacon-style products with savory flavor, appealing color, and dependable processing performance in every batch.

Unlike the Imitation Bacon #2 this seasoning does not have the cure mixed in already and is designed for 25 lb.

Salt builds overall flavor intensity while enhancing the natural flavor of the meat and providing the savory foundation associated with traditional bacon products.

The whey protein blend contributes important functional properties, helping improve binding, moisture retention, texture, and mouthfeel while adding richness to the finished product.

Sodium phosphate improves water-holding capacity and protein extraction, helping create the firm texture, binding strength, and product yield necessary for successful restructured bacon production.

Brown sugar provides rich sweetness and subtle caramel notes that complement the smoke flavor and contribute to the familiar sweet-and-savory character associated with bacon.

Natural hickory smoke flavor delivers authentic wood-smoked character, providing the distinctive aroma and flavor that define traditional bacon products.

Dextrose contributes a clean sweetness that balances the smoke and savory components while helping round out the overall flavor profile.

Sugar adds additional sweetness and supports the classic flavor balance between smoke, salt, and caramelized notes.

Gelatin hydrolyzate contributes body and mouthfeel, helping create a richer eating experience while supporting the texture of the finished product.

Spice extractives enhance aroma and flavor impact, helping deliver a fuller and more consistent bacon flavor throughout the finished product.

Because this seasoning is designed for restructured bacon applications, its combination of functional ingredients helps create a firm, sliceable product with the appearance, texture, and flavor characteristics associated with traditional bacon.
