BACON-BOURBON JAM
The taste of this jam is truly outrageous. Each bite contains layer upon layer of flavor, from the caramelized onions and garlic; to the sweet bourbon and maple syrup; to the smoky, salty, porky bacon. Try it on toast, in place of mayonnaise in a sandwich, or slathered on pancakes. It will keep for a month in the fridge. No need to use fancy bacon; regular supermarket bacon will work perfectly well. Transcribed from a recipe at Serious Eats. http://bit.ly/e1MPDp

Add bacon and stir to combine.

Tips:
- Choose the right bacon: Thick-cut bacon is best for this recipe, as it will hold up better during the cooking process and provide a more satisfying bite.
- Use a good quality bourbon: The bourbon you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the chutney, so be sure to choose one that you enjoy drinking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the bacon, be sure to leave enough space between the pieces so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the bacon slowly: Low and slow is the key to getting perfectly cooked bacon. Cook the bacon over medium-low heat until it is crispy and browned.
- Use a variety of onions: This recipe calls for both yellow and red onions, but you can use any type of onion that you like. Sweet onions, such as Vidalia onions, are a good choice.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: This recipe is a great starting point, but you can easily customize it to your own taste. Try adding different spices, herbs, or fruits to the chutney.
Conclusion:
Bourbon bacon chutney is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It is perfect for burgers, sandwiches, and grilled meats.
