Bacon, Bourbon and Onion Marmalade

October 3, 2015 by Leave a Comment


The Bacon, Bourbon and Onion Marmalade is a savory and delicious addition for sandwiches, burgers, grilled cheese, and if you are a southerner…egg and marmalade on toasted white (Wonder) bread.   However, you can spread it on whatever tickles your taste buds.  The fantastic flavor of the marmalade and the sweet and salty flavours of the bacon will inspire you to make this marmalade over and over again.

1. Marmalade Ingredients
2. Prepping the bacon
3. Bacon ready !

4. Onions sliced in strips
5. Brown and caramelized onions
6. Bacon, Bourbon and Onion goodness.

I looked forward to having a little bit on a burger with some coleslaw…or not.  I just had to savor the marmalade with a burger on a Brioche
bun.  The recipe originated from the Southern Living’s Bourbon and Bacon Cookbook , by Morgan Murphy.
