Yoder Family Farms Duroc Pork - Lone Tree, Iowa

Yoder Family Farms Duroc Pork produced its first pigs in 2018, but the vision for our farm began much earlier than that. When my dad retired from his farrow-to-finish operation in 2008 after 35 years in the business I was determined to raise pigs again. From that point forward the planning began and the foundation of the plan was to raise a pig that we would be proud to directly market to our family, friends, and neighbors. We want to deliver the highest quality pork to the consumer. To do that we chose the Duroc breed for our farm. Having Duroc pigs allows us to not only produce pigs outside in the ever changing Iowa environments, but also the potential to produce high quality pork through genetic progress. Every animal we raise is the result of careful consideration and decisions with the sole goal of producing tender and tasty pork.

We are proud to share the results of that plan with everyone. Our farm is not only about raising pigs, but producing the highest quality pork that everyone can enjoy. We hope that you enjoy the pork that we raised as we work on building a farm that will supply pork in Eastern Iowa for generations to come.

Thank you,

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.
