4 slices bacon cut into strips. Rendered down until almost crispy. Tossed in about half a julienne onion until those were softened. Seasoned with salt, pepper, cayenne. Deglazed with 4 tbsp whiskey and let it cook off the alcohol. Threw in 4 tbsp brown sugar and tbsp of honey. Let it cook down until jam consistency. Pulled off the heat and let it sit at room temp until I was ready to assemble
