Bacon Jam
Over the weekend The Brother and I watched a food show on the Discovery Channel. The United States of Bacon.
Chef Todd Fisher travels the country finding a bacon fix for those of us addicted to the divine swine. On this episode he found a bacon grilled cheese.
Not only were there several strips of bacon on this sandwich, there was something they called bacon jam smeared on bread.
Of course this was a secret recipe but they did let slip that is was a blend of onions, garlic, bacon and brown sugar. Charles and I agreed, we MUST have this.
This morning has had me once again donning my mad scientist gear as I tried to replicate this elusive jam. I think I am close. It will need some tweaking. However, for a first attempt, I am pretty pleased.
I will confer with Charles and adjust spices and amounts until we get it right!
