We believe most things are better with a few pieces of bacon or a splash of good bourbon, so naturally we set out to combine these two crowd favorites into a single jam. The resulting spread is sweet and smoky, finishing with a caramel bite from the bourbon. Tender apples, maple syrup, onions and shallots round out the recipe, creating a complex jam that instantly elevates appetizers, adds depth to cheese boards and builds a better burger.
- A boozy, savory jam with real pieces of bacon
- Sweetened with Grade A Maine maple syrup
Bourbon Bacon Grilled Cheese
Directions:
- Place bread slices on a clean work surface. Generously spread the Bourbon Bacon Jam over four slices of bread and Farmhouse Pimento spread over the remaining 4 slices. Top Pimento spread with 2 slices of cooked bacon. Place the slices covered in jam on top of the slices covered with Pimento spread to create 4 sandwiches.
- In a saute pan over medium heat, add 1-2 Tablespoons of butter. Once melted add the sandwiches.
- Saute sandwiches over medium heat until golden brown. Remove from pan, add additional 1-2 Tablespoons of butter and flip sandwiches to brown the other side until cheese has melted. A panini maker can also be used. Cut sandwiches in half and serve.
