Sweet, savoury, and oh-so-sinful.

Chinese New Year isn’t really Chinese New Year without bak kwa, a crowd favourite festive snack.

If you’re on the hunt for the best pork jerky this CNY 2021, we’ve got you covered.

Here are five of the best bak kwa deals in Singapore to look out for:

1) FYRE Bak Kwa

(From left to right: The Original 1945 and The Mala Xiang Guo)

FYRE is a locally-born bak kwa brand that boasts two signature flavours:

The Original 1945: S$118 (per 1kg)

The Mala Xiang Guo: S$128 (per 1kg)

Marinated for a month (yes, a month) with 36 spices, the Original 1945 is made by fusing pork jowl and loin to produce succulent dried, yet juicy meat.

The Mala Xiang Guo, on the other hand, is formulated by frying spices together with Mala in a wok over high heat to produce a ’wok hey’ that caters to the modern and local palate.

FYRE Singapore’s bak kwa are all hand-made using only premium meat cuts that provide maximum tenderness and succulence.

The premium meat slices are then smoked for hours over lychee and apple wood, before being barbecued over a charcoal masonry. Yum.
