back bacon

back bacon
   , canadian bacon or irish bacon
   Back bacon is usually cut thicker than American “streaky” bacon. This cut comes from the loin of the pig which is located in the middle of its back; hence the term back bacon. The fact can be easily trimmed, making back bacon a very lean, meaty cut of bacon with a ham-like texture. However, Irish bacon maintains a layer of fat around the meat to enhance the flavor.
