This Paleo Bacon Jam is so amazing. It is great on a burger or a gluten free grilled cheese. I double it once a week and use it on everything! Picture from All-American Paleo Table

Holy Moly. Is this the best recipe ever? Yes. Is this what I will eat in heaven? I really hope so. My sweet sweet friend Caroline Potter came out with the cookbook, All-American Paleo Table, and it is a MUST have for any kitchen. I can’t get over how many things I want to make from it!

This Paleo Bacon Jam is so amazing. It is great on a burger or a gluten free grilled cheese. I double it once a week and use it on everything!I met Caroline at Paleo f(x) this past year and I just loved her. We instantly bonded over Mexican food, margaritas, and blogging. She’s from California, where I’d live if I wasn’t in love with New Orleans, and now she lives in Hawaii, which is also awesome. 

When she came out with the cookbook, I saw Paleo Bacon Jam and I just about died. This summer I went to Seaside, Florida with my friends and they insisted on getting Bacon Jam Grilled Cheese from a food truck. Unfortunately there was no gluten free bread, so one of them just let me try their bacon jam. It was AMAZING. I promised I’d try to make a Paleo Bacon Jam, but it never happened. Then when Caroline sent me her book, I couldn’t wait to make it. This Paleo Bacon Jam is so amazing. It is great on a burger or a gluten free grilled cheese. I double it once a week and use it on everything!

This recipe did not disappoint, if anything it was better than the Bacon Jam from Seaside. Today when I made it, I put it on top of a piece of Gluten Free Bread with Havarti. So gooood. You could also top it on a burger, like her amazing photo at the top!

ONION BACON JAM
  1. 1/2 lb bacon
  2. 1 medium-size red onion, thinly sliced
  3. 4 Medjool dates, pitted
  4. 1/3 cup strongly brewed coffee
  5. 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  6. 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
BURGERS
  1. 2 lbs ground beef
  2. Salt and pepper, to taste
  3. 6 Burger Buns (recipe in All American Paleo Table)
  4. 6 fried eggs with runny yolks
  5. 1/4 cup Duck Fat Mayonnaise (recipe in All American Paleo Table)
  6. Fresh arugula, for serving
  7. 4 oz blue cheese (omit for dairy-free)
Bacon Jam
  1. Warm a large skillet to medium heat. Sear the bacon just until both sides are browned, but not fully cooked or crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside.
  2. Saute the onions in the bacon grease for 5 minutes or until they begin to soften. Add the bacon, dates, coffee, balsamic vinegar and mustard to the pan and give it a stir. Place the lid on the pan and reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting.
  3. Cook the bacon jam for 1 hour, stirring once or twice. Add the bacon to the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth.
Burgers
  1. While the jam is cooking, prepare the burgers by warming your grill to medium-high heat (about 450 to 500°F). Gently form the burgers by shaping into 6 round patties. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Grill the burgers for about 4 minutes, flip and grill an additional 3 to 4 minutes for medium. Adjust the grilling time based on thickness and your desired serving preference.
  3. While your burgers are grilling, slice the Burger Buns in half and lightly toast them. Warm a large skillet and prepare your fried eggs.
  4. To assemble the burgers, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the buns then place the bottom half of the bun on the plate and layer with a handful of arugula, grilled burger, blue cheese crumples, a spoonful of onion bacon jam and a runny yolk fried egg.
