The Nueske (apple smoked from Wisconsin) is really good and has more of a BBQ taste than normal bacon and does not have as much loss either (but it is very strong flavored). I also really like Niman Ranch (they does a cured or uncured) it is a little sweeter and less smokey but alos very good. I also use Scheller & Weber which comes in a slab and is really dense, good smoke and very meaty. I find most of these bacons better in a dish than on there own (I made a BLT recently with Nueske and my wife commented that all she could taste was the bacon) and a little goes a long way.
