    Description

    Bourbon Bacon Jam is a great condiment to have on hand. Add some flavor to burgers, sandwiches, or toast. This bacon jam is delicious on anything really.


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 package bacon
    • 1 small onion, chopped
    • 1 Tablespoon + 1 teaspoon brown sugar
    • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
    • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
    • 1/4 cup bourbon

    Instructions

    1. Start by frying the bacon in a large skillet. Fry the bacon until crispy (about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally). Take the crispy bacon out of the pan and place on a paper towel. Toss in the finely chopped onion into the bacon grease, and brown for around 2 minutes. Add the brown sugar, garlic powder and pepper. Stir until the brown sugar has dissolved. Then carefully pour in the bourbon. Cook down for around 5 minutes, or until the bourbon has evaporated by half. Chop up the crispy bacon, and stir back into the bourbon onion mixture.
