Recently there has been a resurgence in interest in bacon jam that I first saw posted a few months ago by our good friend Steve
Steve H
. That resurgence came by way of a thread a few days ago by
Sowsage
when he posted these monster brisket burgers covered with the bacon jam. I made my first batch of the stuff literally minutes after seeing the post by Steve and have made several batches since then. It it SOOOO good!! I had big visions of making a really nice breakfast this morning but Tracy came along and changed my vision for me in a hurry. She wanted pancakes and homemade maple & brown sugar bacon. Oh well...gotta keep her happy, especially being that I'm considering another cooker purchase 
Got the pancakes in the electric skillet
Flipped. At this point I decide I want to elevate these somehow....and then came the idea of bacon jam
Done and plated. Tracy said this is beautiful and worthy of pics. Little did she know....
Here's the real money shot. IMHO, this is drool worthy!!
Obviously I put some butter on each pancake along with the bacon jam. Then I drizzled a bit of maple syrup on the top only just to offset the acidity a little bit . This was really good!! Next time I make pancakes Tracy asked that I heat up more of the bacon jam so she can have some on hers. Never in my wildest dreams did I think she'd ever ask for that, but it's flattering to say the least. I'd certainly say these were "elevated" pancakes!!
Oh well, that's a wrap!!
