Bourbon Bacon Jam... Pretty random right? Well not when you're having burgers for dinner (recipe coming soon). This jam is boozy, sweet, and salty. It is this perfect condiment for any gathering. Start by frying up some bacon...
REMINDER: Don't wear anything nice while frying bacon. It WILL get ruined. I have gone through a lot of shirts... Once the bacon is nice and crispy remove it from the skillet. Add some onion, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, and pepper to the bacon fat. Then add the bourbon!
Bubbly...Yummy. Reduce the mixture down (about 5 minutes). Then Chop up the bacon, and add it back to the bourbon/onion mixture.
Put this jam on anything your heart desires. Burgers, toast, eggs, grits, biscuits...You get the point.
