Author/contributor Lucy Baker - posted this terrific recipe and play by play of slow cooker Bacon Jam.

At our recent Beer, Bourbon, BBQ festival - two of our tasting experiences featured Bacon Jam.

It was by far one of the most popular finds at the event. Bacon jam makes quite the appetizer spread on your favorite crackers (we like 'em real decadent like spread on pork rinds...). The smoky, sweet, satisfying taste makes a great addition to your favorite sandwich too.

Here's what Lucy has to say...

"The December issue of Everyday Food contains a recipefor Slow-Cooker Bacon Jam that I've been thinking about for weeks. I imagined slathering it on toast, using it in place of mayonnaise on turkey sandwiches, spooning it over pancakes. And basically just eating it straight from the jar.

What's more appealing than sweet, gooey jam infused with the flavors of brown sugar, maple syrup, coffee, and bacon? I certainly can't think of anything."
