Bacon Jam

• 1 pound bacon, cut into 1" pieces
• 1 onion, medium dice
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons ancho chili powder
• 1 teaspoon chipotle powder (or smoked paprika)
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon cocoa nibs, ground
• 3/4 cup strong black coffee
• 1/4 cup cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup agave syrup (or honey)

1. Cook bacon in a skillet until fat is rendered and bacon is slightly crisp. Add the onion and saute for about 3 minutes. Pour out half of the bacon fat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min.
2. Add the sugar, all of the spices and cocoa nibs and stir over heat for 1-2 minutes.
3. Transfer to a small pot and pour in coffee, vinegar, agave and water to cover. Simmer on low for about 3 hours. Add more water during the cooking if the liquid gets too low.
4. Transfer to a food processor and pulse until slightly smooth. I leave it a bit chunky with bacon bits. Serve with baguette and apple slices.
