Excellent quality
I was very pleased with the freshness, taste and texture of The Di Bruno Bros. guanciale. I made a carbonara that had all of my relatives asking for second helpings.
Unctuous and silky – the sexier version of bacon. If it ain't Guanciale, it ain't Bucatini all'Amatriciana.
Smoother and more lush than bacon, as it is made with the rich, fatty cut of pork jowl. Cured simply with a mix of herbs and spices, the pork flavor comes through with all of the savory notes.
Guanciale is traditionally used in Bucatini all'Amatriciana, but you can really use it in lieu of bacon in any application. Render the fat and use it to cook just about any vegetable, or make a roux from it as a base for mac and cheese sauce.

It was delicious!! We really enjoyed it and will definitely buy it again!!
Tried so hard to find this should have know DiB would have it!
I like to order from family businesses. This guanciale waas used for my first attempt at home made Roman style spaghetti carbonara, as seen on Stanley Tucci Searching for Italy TV show. With some research on you tube I made a delicious guanciale based carbonara. Very good product. Worth the expense.
I will review the guanchali after I get a comment from our pastor who lived in Rome for 2 years. He loves guanchali
I finally found some to buy!! There is nothing available in my neck of the woods (Spokane WA). Anxious to try.
I love cooking but had not run into guanciale until I tasted it used in a snap pea recipe. The flavor is so complex without being overwhelming. I had a "salt flavor " but is not overwhelming as bacon can sometimes give. It is all about flavor! Guanciale will be my new favorite "go to"
whenever a "fat " is called for. Thank you for introducing me to something so special. It arrived beautifully packaged...it will last a good while. a great cooking find!
