Preparation

Step 1

In a large pot over medium heat, add bacon. Cook bacon until fat is rendered and bacon is crisp. Remove bacon pieces and set aside. Add onion to the bacon grease. Cook onions on medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until tender (be sure not to burn). Reduce heat to low and carefully add the remaining ingredients (including the reserved bacon). Stir well and allow to cook for 5-10 minutes. Taste for sweetness and heat and adjust if needed.

Pour into 2 pint jars (or 1 quart jar) and refrigerate for up to 4 weeks.
