Year of the Pig; Where can I get that (Halal) Bacon? February 5, 2019

Halal Beef Hotlinks wrapped with Halal Beef Bacon. Prepared by Shareef Pratt at the 2018 Halal Food Festival in Fremont, CA.

2019 is the Year of the Pig in the Chinese Lunar Calendar which starts today.  Of course as Muslims, we do not eat Pork or any other product derived from the flesh of swine, but we can eat Beef!  Bacon is a popular meat item in the United States, but besides Pork Bacon, there is also Beef Bacon as well as Chicken and Turkey Bacon.  There are many Halal Bacon options out there and here are 5 spots to get your fix of Halal Bacon in the Bay Area:

  • The Bliss Burger from Mainstreet Burgers in Willow Glen (San Jose).  Comes with Cheddar, Bacon, BBQ Sauce and Onion Rings.  NOTE: You must specify that you want Halal Beef Patty and also Halal Beef Bacon.  Both are from Harris Ranch, which provides Certified Hand-Slaughtered Halal Meat. See the Coupon Below for $5 off your order!
  • The Dub Nation Burger from the Hot Grill in downtown San Jose. A simple burger with Beef Patty, Bacon and Cheese. The Halal Beef & Bacon are from Crescent Foods, which is Certified Hand-Slaughtered Halal Meat. See the Coupon Below for $5 off your order!
  • The Hipster Burger from Wings Plus in San Francisco.  The burger comes with the usual lettuce, tomato and onions, but also has Avocado as well as Beef Bacon. The Halal Meat is from Harris Ranch, which provides Certified Hand-Slaughtered Halal Meat.
  • The Badmash Burger from Falafel Corner in Fremont. “Badmash” means “Bad” or “Naughty” in Urdu, and this is a big burger with double patties, fried egg, beef bacon and special sauce.  The Beef  & Bacon is from Harris Ranch which provides Certified Halal Meat as mentioned earlier.
  • And for something different try the All Meat Pizza at L’Aziz Pizza + Eatery in Union City, where you can get Halal Bacon as a topping for your East Coast style pizza!  The Halal Bacon is from Midamar, which provides Certified Halal Beef.
