Bacon Jam? That’s My Jam!

Of all the loves in my life, bacon jam always returns to me. I may forget about it for a while (mainly because I make so much at one time, or try not to eat so many burgers, or grilled cheese) but when it enters my consciousness, it really comes storming in. And I go storming in to Costco to buy vast quantities of bacon. Because that’s my jam.

I originally found this bacon jam recipe by Martha Stewart. And I’m not allowed to change the way Martha does things. The only thing I’ve changed is that I’ve used my Cuisinart Multi Cooker. That way I can just do everything in one pot and leave it.

So what should you do with your new jam? Well you could just eat it. Or, the best uses I have found are burgers, and grilled cheeses. Maybe even with… Cinnamon Rolls!
