SKILLET STREET FOOD Bacon Spread, 7 OZ

Skillet is the name a popular Seattle area food truck owned and operated by Culinary Institute of America trained chef, Joshua Henderson. After working at a variety of top restaurants (including a stint as Head Chef at Beverly Hill's Avalon), Josh moved back to Seattle, bought a 1962 Airstream trailer and now serves gourmet food out of it to Seattle's night-time crowd.Skillet's signature item is simply called "The Burger" and what really sets it apart from other deluxe, $12 hamburgers is a generous slathering of Henderson's own creation, Bacon Jam. When I first encountered this product I was so blown away by it's heavenly, bacon-rich flavor that I rushed to my computer to find out how it is made. This is from Skillet's website: "... we take a big bunch of really, really good bacon, and render it down...add a bunch of spices..onions, etc. and let it simmer for about 6 hours...give it a quick puree, blast chill it...and you have bacon jam..."This stuff is great! It has a thick, spreadable consistency with hints of powdered chilies, brown sugar and vinegar. It gives a somewhat subtle but unmistakable bacon taste to whatever you spread it on. Hamburgers are a natural, but I have used it on paninis, grilled cheese sandwiches and a baked potato. This will be a regular item in my house. I should be able to use Bacon Jam for things other than sandwiches and I look forward to experimenting with this wonderful spread.

Like I said, good substitute. But It cant take the place of putting fresh cooked bacon on top the burger. Otherwise it tasted good, just like bacon but with a bit of sweetness. Like maple smoked bacon was used. All in all I'd use it again.My one complaint is not about the jam itself, but the seller. The bacon jam I received was about to expire one month after It was sent to me.

Order delivered as promised, but did not taste like I thought It would. I was expecting it to taste like bacon, instead it had a sour and overall bad flavor. ( in my opinion) Even my 15 year old daughter who loves bacon more than anything, had to spit it out. Maybe we got a bad jar.

Wasn't sure what to expect. It was very smoky and not quite as sweet as I expected. It was good on some burgers with gruyere and arugula, but not as prominent as I expected it to be.

absolutely wonderfulmy gift recipient went crazy when she saw it!  Skillet Bacon Jam Bacon Spread - One 7 Ounce Jar she could n't get over the amount of bacon in the spread

I love this stuff!I use it on sandwiches, steaks, and burgers! Great taste and I will definitely be ordering more when this jar is done.

Saw it on tv had to try, good to add with anything even on toast.

I tried this on a turkey burger, it was so yummy :) I imagine it would be great on anything. It's to bad I can't find it locally. I certainly will be ordering again.
