Nature’s Promise Turkey Bacon
Our turkey bacon brings the satisfying sizzle and smoky-sweet flavor you crave to your morning table, crafted from premium turkey raised without antibiotics. Each slice crisps beautifully in the pan, delivering that essential bacon snap without the extra fat found in traditional pork varieties.
We source our turkey from farms committed to humane raising practices, then cure and smoke each batch to achieve the rich, savory taste that makes bacon irreplaceable.

What makes our turkey bacon different
Sourcing and preparation
We partner exclusively with turkey farmers who raise their flocks without antibiotics, allowing the birds to develop naturally on vegetarian feed. This commitment to clean raising practices means you can trace every slice back to farms that prioritize animal welfare and environmental stewardship.
Our curing process uses a carefully balanced blend of sea salt, natural sugars, and spices, then we cold-smoke each batch over hardwood to lock in that signature bacon aroma. The result is a product that delivers on taste while aligning with the values that guide every item in the Nature’s Promise line.
Cooking methods and texture
Because our turkey bacon arrives fully cooked, you only need to heat it through to achieve your preferred level of crispness. For stovetop preparation, lay slices in a cold skillet and warm over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, watching closely as the edges begin to curl and brown.
Oven baking works beautifully when you’re preparing multiple servings—arrange slices on a parchment-lined sheet pan and bake at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping once halfway through. The leaner profile means it crisps faster than pork bacon, so keep an eye on the clock to prevent over-browning. You can also microwave individual slices between paper towels for 30-45 seconds when time is tight.
Nutritional profile and dietary fit
Each two-slice serving of Nature’s Promise turkey bacon contains approximately 60 calories and 4.5 grams of fat, compared to traditional pork bacon’s higher saturated fat content. This makes it a practical choice for those monitoring their fat intake without sacrificing the morning ritual of bacon and eggs.
The product is naturally gluten-free and contains no artificial nitrates or nitrites, relying instead on celery powder as a natural preservative. It fits seamlessly into many eating plans, from heart-conscious diets to those simply looking to lighten their breakfast plate while keeping the flavors they love.

Your questions about Nature’s Promise turkey bacon
Our turkey bacon contains 57% less fat than USDA reference data for cooked pork bacon, making it a lighter option for those monitoring their fat intake. Each two-slice serving has approximately 4.5 grams of fat compared to the higher saturated fat levels found in traditional pork varieties.
Despite the lower fat content, we’ve engineered the curing and smoking process to retain the rich, savory flavor and satisfying texture you expect from premium bacon.
This turkey bacon arrives fully cooked, so you only need to heat it through to your preferred level of crispness. Most people warm it in a skillet for 2-3 minutes per side over medium heat, or bake it in a 400°F oven for 8-10 minutes.
Because it’s already cooked, the heating time is shorter than raw bacon, and you’re primarily crisping the edges and warming the slices rather than cooking meat through to a safe temperature.
We do not add artificial nitrates or nitrites to Nature’s Promise turkey bacon. Instead, we use celery powder as a natural preservative, which contains naturally occurring nitrates that help preserve color and freshness.
This approach aligns with our commitment to clean ingredients while still delivering the shelf stability and flavor you need from a refrigerated bacon product.
For maximum crispness, we recommend oven baking on a parchment-lined sheet pan at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through. This method allows heat to circulate around each slice evenly, creating uniform browning and texture.
Because turkey bacon is leaner than pork bacon, it crisps faster and can go from perfectly done to overdone quickly. Watch closely during the final two minutes and remove it as soon as the edges curl and turn golden brown.
Once opened, store the bacon in its original resealable package or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate. It will maintain best quality for up to seven days after opening.
For longer storage, you can freeze individual slices between sheets of parchment paper in a freezer bag for up to two months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before heating.
Yes, Nature’s Promise turkey bacon is gluten-free and safe for those avoiding gluten in their diet. We do not use any wheat-based fillers, breadings, or flavorings in the product.
The ingredient list is straightforward—turkey, natural seasonings, and celery powder—making it suitable for a variety of dietary preferences beyond just gluten avoidance.
Absolutely. Our turkey bacon works as a direct substitute in virtually any recipe calling for bacon, from breakfast scrambles to pasta carbonara to bacon-wrapped appetizers. Keep in mind that because it contains less fat, it won’t render as much grease during cooking.
You may want to add a small amount of oil to the pan when using it for recipes that rely on bacon fat for flavor, or simply adjust cooking times since turkey bacon heats through faster than raw pork bacon.
