We Save Your Bacon by upcycling bacon ends into bacon jam!
Did you know that you can save the planet with bacon! We make delicious bacon jam from upcycled bacon ends.
Bacon ends are created when bacon is sliced too thick or too thin for the nice package you find in the super market. These perfectly delicious pieces of pork were often rendered or sold for feed. And Americans eat 2 billion pounds of bacon a year. This results in a lot of bacon ends and experts tell us that ending food waste ie upcycling is the number one way to fight climate change!
Bacon jam is made when we rescue those bacon ends and cook they up with caramelized onions, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar until it is all reduced down into a delicious sweet and savory spread you can put on everything from burgers, to sandwiches, to charcuterie boards to just about everywhere you want bacon to be and if you are like 85% of Americans, that’s everywhere!
