Back bacon is traditionally prepared from brined, centre-cut boneless pork loin. It is much leaner than American/streaky bacon. It is sometimes called Irish bacon or Canadian bacon,[1] but should not be confused with the round, sliced, smoked ham product called "Canadian Bacon" in much of the United States.[2] In some parts of central Canada, back bacon is primarily prepared and sold as peameal bacon. Although it was originally rolled in ground dried yellow peas, it is now almost exclusively rolled in more readily available cornmeal.
