Ingredients

1/2 pound thick-cut bacon, chopped

1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced

2 medium cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup pure maple syrup

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 cup fresh ripe diced tomatoes

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

1 bay leaf

Directions

Cook bacon in a medium Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until translucent and softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain excess bacon grease from pan. Stir in remaining ingredients and reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until reduced and thickened to a jam-like consistency, about 1 hour. Discard bay leaf. Transfer to a blender and pulse to combine, leaving some chunks. Use immediately, or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
