Irihs Bacon is the most popular cut of bacon in the British Isles. Unlike American bacon which is only made from pork belly, Irish bacon is cut to include the pork belly and loin. While this type of bacon is hard to find in the U.S. (Canadian bacon and pancetta both come close), if you can get your hands on some you’ll be ready to celebrate pinching people and drinking beer with something that’s actually Irish.
