Ingredients
- 1 pound thick-cut bacon, diced
- 1 large yellow onion, finely diced (about 1 ½ cups)
- 2 small Fuji apples, peeled, diced (about 2 cups)
- 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
- ½ cup (100 g) brown sugar
- ¼ cup (79 g) maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 3 tablespoons whiskey
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. While the bacon is cooking, line a plate with a paper towel.
- Place the cooked bacon onto the lined plate. Set aside.
- Leave about 4 tablespoons of bacon grease in the pan, carefully removing the rest.
- To the pan, add the onion. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook until the onions are translucent (about 8-10 minutes).
- Add the apples, and stir to combine.
- Continue to cook until apples have softened and onions have caramelized, (4-5 more minutes), stirring often.
- Mix in the garlic, brown sugar, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, chili powder, and cooked bacon.
- Remove the pan from heat. Then, add the whiskey. Stir well. Place the pan back on the heat.
- Simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened. It should be about the consistency of a jam.
- Serve warm or cold. You may want to warm slightly if it has been refrigerated.
