A method of making bacon bits from raw bellies. The raw bellies are sized to a first size. Then, the sized bellies are mixed with water and curing ingredients to form a product mixture. The mixture is heated to above 120.degree. F. wherein protein within the product mixture is substantially denatured. The product is then mixed further and then heated to at least 180.degree. F. Finishing processing takes the product mixture to a water activity level of 0.85 or less. In one embodiment, encapsulated salt is added with the curing ingredients. In another embodiment regular salt is added after the protein has been denatured. In both embodiments, the salt does not reach the protein within the bacon until the protein has been denatured.
