Vande Rose Farms Artisan Hams and Bacon
If you truly appreciate great ham and bacon, you’ll love the exceptional all-natural flavor of Vande Rose Farms artisan hams and bacon made from their own Premium Duroc Pork.

The Duroc breed naturally displays better marbling and retains more moisture to deliver the very best ham and bacon you can lay your hands on. To amplify this great flavor, they use their centuries-old, hand-crafted rubs and cures – a simple mixture of natural seasonings without phosphates – to create their famous artisan taste. they cure their hams and bellies for as long as a week and then they slow smoke them over real applewood to seal in that amazing taste. No water is added so the ham and thick-sliced bacon retain a dense, meaty texture and maximum flavor.

By raising their Duroc hogs responsibly with a diet of their own natural grains with no antibiotics, Vande Rose Farms Artisan Hams & Bacon deliver a one-of-a-kind taste you won’t soon forget.

At Vande Rose Farms, they have raised award-winning Duroc hogs on their family farms for more than a century.
