Beyond Bacon pays homage to the humble hog by teaching you how to make more than a hundred recipes featuring cuts from the entire animal. While bacon might be the most popular part of the pig for those following the Paleo diet, there is a plethora of other delicious and nutrient-dense cuts to enjoy.

Beyond Bacon allows you to improve your health and the environment by focusing on sustainable swine.
