Instructions
- In a large, heavy nonstick pan, melt lard on medium high heat.
- Add finely diced bacon and onions and continue to cook on medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned - about 10 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and add in diced apples, garlic, salt, and marjoram.
- Continue to cook until bacon and onions are a deep caramel brown.
- Remove from heat and place in covered bowl and let cool. Refrigerate to cool and bring back to a thicker consistency, then serve. Smalec should be soft and room temperature, but white and solidified, not liquid like in the pan.
