About Schwartz Meat Company

We’re the Schwartz Family: Zack, Margaret, and our children Bryce, Nora and Parker. Together we’re carrying on a family legacy as the 6th generation of the Schwartz Family to raise sheep. We’re raising our kids alongside our flock of sheep in Flemingsburg, KY. Zack and I started this journey wanting to share our lamb with friends and family and quickly realized we had an entire community looking to support local farms.

As farmers, we spend long days on the farm, but we are blessed to be able to raise our children on a farm where they can explore and learn some of life’s best lessons. After all, we are raising the next generation of agriculture.

Our family, feeding your family. 

We’re proud to be able to supply your families with locally raised pork & lamb. All of our lamb is bred, born, raised, and finished on the farm. 

Our Berkshire & Duroc pork is finished on the farm. 

We work hard every day to raise our livestock with the best practices resulting in delicious, nutrient dense meats. 

We’re glad you're here!

Thick Cut Bacon Delivered to Your Door

Thick Cut Bacon Near Me!

Thick cut bacon is the ultimate choice for bacon lovers who crave a hearty, satisfying bite with every piece. Cut thicker than your standard bacon, this variety offers a perfect balance of crispy edges and tender, juicy meat in the middle. Whether you’re frying it up for breakfast, adding it to a burger, or crumbling it into a salad, thick cut bacon takes your meals to the next level with its bold flavor and satisfying texture.

Sourced from farm-fresh pork, our thick cut bacon is expertly smoked for that irresistible flavor you know and love. It’s a perfect option for anyone who enjoys the crunch of bacon, but with a little extra substance and flavor in every slice.

Fun Facts About Thick Cut Bacon:

  • Thick cut bacon offers a hearty bite and more of the pork in every slice, giving you a satisfying texture that you won’t get with thinner cuts.

  • It holds up well when used in soups, pastas, and even desserts, where you want the bacon flavor to stand out.

  • The smoking process adds a layer of complexity to the flavor, making thick-cut bacon great for savory dishes that need an extra punch of flavor.

  • It’s perfect for making bacon-wrapped dishes like bacon-wrapped chicken or bacon-wrapped asparagus, giving each dish an extra smoky touch.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Protein: A rich source of high-quality protein, essential for muscle repair and overall body health.

  • B Vitamins: Packed with B12 and B6, which help with energy production and support your nervous system.

  • Iron & Zinc: High in iron for red blood cell production and zinc to help boost immune function.

Cooking Tips:

  • Fry or bake: Thick cut bacon can be cooked in a pan, baked in the oven, or even grilled. For a mess-free option, baking it in the oven allows the bacon to cook evenly and become perfectly crisp.

  • Low and slow: Cook at a lower heat for more even cooking, allowing the fat to render slowly for a crispy finish without burning.

  • Use in sandwiches and burgers: With its bold flavor and hearty texture, thick cut bacon is great for BLTs, burgers, or even breakfast sandwiches.

Cooking Temperatures:

  • Thick cut bacon should be cooked to a crispness you prefer, but typically, it reaches optimal flavor at 160°F (71°C). Adjust the time based on your preferred level of crispiness.

The pork chops are so tender, you could cut them with a fork. Absolutely delicious.
E
Lamb fries were amazing, first time trying them, just coat in flour and seasoning no need to salt, they are naturally salty. told my kids they were chicken nuggets, and they had no idea. the lamb shank was to die for. I used it for bone broth, then ate the meat after, so tender, delicious, and meaty

Thank you for providing us with a flavorful pork that tastes like it did when I was growing up. I haven’t ate much meat in years, but I was amazed that I was able to eat a plate sized pork chop all by myself! It was just lovely. I’ll be back.
