Scrumptious Butcher-Cut Maple Bacon
Perfect on the barbeque to top your steaks, burgers or even fish, is the thick cut artisanal bacon created by the Grumpy Butcher (Boucher Fache). Do you remember bacon the way it used to be?
Rob Braide and his son Ian have been tinkering with bacon recipes for over 15 years to make it the way it should be. They locally craft it using Quebec pork, organic maple sugar and maple syrup. It is free from chemicals and full of character.
They have added to their repertoire: maple cured lardons which are a scrumptious topping for salads or eggs and now Jamaican Jerk bacon – expect a bit of a bite.
The sliced maple bacon is made in small batches for a great big taste. You can order it on their Grumpy Butcher web site or buy it at Le Panier in Pointe Claire or at 5 other locations around town. Online, minimum orders are $25 and if you spend over $50, there’s free shipping.
