Some people believe the typical strip of bacon you see is the only version of this meat, but there are so many different varieties. You can buy it in different cuts, which have different thicknesses and amounts of fat or you can go for what they call “bacon cousins” with Canadian bacon or pancetta. All are made from pork, just different parts of the pig, which can be cut or smoked differently. No matter which type you decide to cook, they all are salty, fatty and delicious.
