Ingredients
- 1 pound Bacon chopped, thick-cut
- 1 onion finely chopped, large
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 4 1/2 tablespoons brewed coffee
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- kosher salt to taste

Instructions
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon and drain on a paper towel, reserving about 1 tablespoon of fat in the skillet.
- Add chopped onions to the skillet with retained bacon fat, cook until soft, then add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
- Return the bacon to the skillet and add brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, brewed coffee, maple syrup, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Simmer the mixture on low heat, stirring occasionally until thickened into a jam-like consistency, about 45-55 minutes. Adjust seasonings to your liking.
- Remove from heat and let cool. Transfer the bacon jam to a jar and store in the refrigerator.
