Jowl bacon is made from the pig's jowl or cheek. This cut contains more fat than traditional bacon, making it richer. Jowl bacon is cured in a similar manner as our regular bacon and has a slightly different flavor profile, with a more pronounced pork taste due to the unique cut. It is less commonly found than regular bacon but can be used in similar culinary applications, such as in soups, stews, or as a topping for various dishes.
