Cloverdale Bacon Jalapeno Jam

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. Cloverdale bacon
  • 1 Onion, finely chopped
  • 3 Jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 4 Cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt
  • 1/3 cup Maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup Cider vinegar
  • Pinch pepper

Instructions
 

  • In large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat, stirring often, until crisp,
  • 10 to 15 minutes. Reserving 1/4 cup fat from pan and straining through fine-mesh sieve, drain. Return reserved fat to pan; cook onion over medium heat, stirring often, until softened and deep brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add jalapeño peppers, garlic and salt; cook, stirring often, until jalapeño peppers are softened, about 4 minutes. Scrape onion mixture into saucepan. Add bacon, maple syrup, vinegar, pepper and 1/4 cup water; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring often, until mixture is thickened and reaches jam-like consistency, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely. Enjoy!
