This sweet & salty Bacon Onion Jam is EXACTLY what your burgers have been missing- and just in time for Father’s Day! 🍔
My trick to why it tastes so good?! I used SWEET onions. But not just any sweet onion…
The Texas 1015 Sweet Onion. 🧅 Which also happens to be our state vegetable! They’re grown in South Texas and are in peak season right now until the end of the month. You can follow @tx1015onions for even more delicious recipe ideas! #partner
Or… check out the full Bacon Onion Jam recipe below. I love it on burgers with swiss cheese and arugula, but it also tastes incredible on crackers with goat cheese or you can package it up in cute mason jars for gifts. (Just make sure you refrigerate it between servings!)
INGREDIENTS
1 lb. thick-cut bacon, cut into ½” pieces
1 Tbsp. salted butter
1 lb. sweet onions, about 4 medium onions
⅓ cup light brown sugar
1 ½ Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
¼ tsp. salt, plus more to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, optional
INSTRUCTIONS
Add bacon to a large skillet over medium heat. Spread it out in a single layer and cook for 12-14 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, line a plate with a paper towel. Once bacon is fully cooked and crispy, remove it from the pan and place on the paper towel-lined plate to drain. Remove all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease from the skillet.
Add butter and onions to the skillet. Cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring every few minutes, or until onions are golden brown and caramelized.
Stir in brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, salt, and cayenne pepper. Reduce heat to low and continue simmering for 8-10 minutes, or until thickened and reaches a jam-like consistency.
Allow to cool to room temperature before storing in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up to a week.
