Kennedy Bacon
The Kennedy family have been farming Glenhordial since the 1940s. The farm is in an area of natural beauty in the hills above Omagh on the edge of the Sperrins. Mervyn Kennedy has been involved from a young age rearing and fattening pigs. He was always interested in curing bacon as the end product of his toil with the pigs.
He attended various courses and after much experimentation he produced a tasty, traditional cure. No water is added and the bacon tastes as it should; savoury, yummy and moreish. It really is bacon at its best
