Dry ice for sure. First of all, bacon is cured and lasts a long time with
no freezing. Just look at the dates on the package.

If well packed in a thick foam box with a lot of ice, it will remain frozen.
The thin 1/2" wall coolers will not work that well, but a thick one will do
the job. There are plenty of 1 1/2" thick walled units if you check out a
seafood supplier or a hospital. Many medications are shipped in heavy walled
insulated containers.
