This tomato jam is sweet and savory and absolutely fantastic on sandwiches, biscuits, crackers and charcuterie board.

Ingredients

1 pound bacon

1 yellow onion, chopped

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1/4 cup brown sugar

4 tablespoons garlic, crushed

1-2 teaspoons salt

1/2 cup cider vinegar

1 teaspoon ground mustard powder

3 dashes of cayenne pepper more or less.

1.5 to 2 pounds tomatoes. I use a mix of all my summer tomatoes that are getting old and can not be used in a salad.

Directions

Step 1: Chop bacon and fry in a heavy Dutch Oven over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon and pour off all be t teaspoons of fat.

Step 2: Cook chopped onions in the fat until just turning brown on the edges.

Step 3: Add bacon and everything else to the Dutch oven and cook over medium heat until starts to boil a little. Continue to cook stirring often until thick and most of the liquid is gone, 3-5 hours.
