Bee’s Knees Bacon Jam
This stuff is so good! Try it on corn cakes, biscuits, chicken thighs, flank steak, a cracker with cream cheese or stirred into potatoes. It makes almost anything better.
Directions
Yield: 1 Cup
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Total Time: 40 Minutes
Ingredients
- 1 lb bacon
- 1 onion, roughly chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- ⅓ cup Nate’s 100% Pure Honey
- 2 Tbsp cider vinegar
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes
- ½ tsp salt
Directions
Fry bacon until crisp and drain, reserving 2 tablespoons of rendered bacon fat. Fry the onion in the bacon fat until translucent.
Add the garlic and stir until fragrant. Stir in honey, vinegar, red pepper flakes and salt. Stir occasionally over medium heat until vinegar is reduced, about 30 minutes.
Adjust seasonings to taste. Allow to cool. Combine all ingredients in a food processor and puree until very smooth. It should look like apple butter.
Store in an airtight jar or any lidded container in the refrigerator. Lasts 3-4 weeks.
