(UPDATE) Richards Meat Market no longer sells this bacon.
You might think I am exaggerating. Perhaps I am because I really haven’t tried every beef bacon brand in the entire world. Perhaps because you think that “beef” and “bacon” shouldn’t be in the same sentence.
Hear me out.
Herman’s Swiss Meat Hickory Smoked Beef Bacon is in-cred-i-ble!
I found this little jewel of a package while conducting my Friday afternoon retail safari in Fayetteville last week at Richard’s Country Meat Market off of College Avenue on Market Street. This is the same bundle of shops where Tuesday Morning, Office Depot, Hobby Lobby, and Blockbuster is located.
And there it was, sitting in the vegetable and butter section. Real beef bacon. Expensive? Heck, ya. Not very many pieces of bacon? Yep, that’s right. A perfect blend of smoky meat, crispiness, and incredible during and after mouth tasting experience and completely worth every penny?
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Try it for yourself and see if it just isn’t the best beef bacon in the world!
Richard’s Country Meat Market is open Monday-Saturday from 9am-6pm. If you’re not living in Northwest Arkansas (well, why not?), check out Herman’s Swiss Meat’s website to see if they ship to or sell in your neck of the woods.
OH, this looks yum, I will be looking for some next time I'm in Fayetteville !
It IS yum!!! Now I'm craving it, too!! 🙂
I found some delicious beef bacon in Walmart next to Fayetteville mall. Glad to know that Richard's carries it also. Will get some more for the freezer.
Is it the same kind? I definitely will go check it out when I'm in Fayetteville tomorrow, thanks!
But super sad news… I went to Richard's and they stopped carrying this brand of beef bacon. Now they have zero beef bacon. sigh. Thanks for letting me (all of us!) know about the Walmart one!

It was not the same packaging–don't think it had a brand name. I'll check for it tomorrow afternoon, too.
Thanks Bobbie! I'm craving a BLT sandwich!! 🙂
Spoke to a meat department person in the NW Fayetteville Walmart. She checked with a 10-year employee who said that beef bacon is a seasonal thing (Christmas? Winter?) and the season is over. Sorry. I'm trying to check ordering by mail with a reasonable price.
Bummer! I went there yesterday and couldn't find it either. I was going to ask you if you meant the turkey bacon… which by the way Oscar Meyer's is way better than Jennie-O. I don't know how Jennie-O stays in distribution because it is not good at all.
Thanks for checking with the meat dept manager. Let me know what you find out, okay? Thanks Bobbie!
