Bacon-Onion Jam

Bacon-Onion Jam

(8 servings)

Ingredients:

½ lb. Bacon, finely diced

1 small Yellow Onion, finely diced

¼ cup Brewed Coffee

3 tbsp. Soy Sauce

2 tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar

2 tbsp. Brown Sugar

2 tbsp. Sugar

as needed Kosher Salt and Black Pepper

Directions:

In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp (about 5 minutes).  Stir occasionally and then transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.  Drain all but 1 tbsp. of bacon fat from skillet and add onion to cook until softened (about 4 minutes).  Return bacon to skillet and add the coffee, soy sauce, vinegar and both sugars.  Continue cooking until liquid is reduced and jam is thick and glossy (about 5 minutes).  Season with salt and pepper and scrape into a bowl to cool to room temperature.  Spread on grilled bun bottom before adding your burger.

Note:               Different flavor of bacon and/or onions will make a little difference in the final product.  So use the ones you prefer when making this recipe.
