Bacon Jam

Ingredients

  • 1 * 1 pound of bacon
  • 4 * 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 * 1 sliver of onion
  • 1-4 * 1-4 chipotles en adobo (depending on the level of heat you can tolerate)
  • 2 * 2 teaspoons adobo sauce (from the can)
  • 2 * 2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
  • 1/2 * 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/2 * 1/2 teaspoon ground Mexican hot chocolate
  • 1 * 1 cup of brewed coffee
  • 1/4 * 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • * Black pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

1. Cook the bacon until fat is rendered, but not too crisp. Cut cooked bacon into two-inch sized pieces.
2. On medium heat, cook the onion and garlic in one tablespoon of rendered bacon fat in a medium-sized pot for two minutes. Add the cooked bacon, spices, apple-cider vinegar and coffee. Simmer on low for two hours, stirring occasionally. If jam starts to get dry, add water, 1/4 cup at a time.
3. After two hours, place bacon jam into a food processor, and puree for two or three seconds, tops. You just want to bring it together but still have some chunks.
