Bacon Jam: Cook bacon in a cast iron pot over medium heat until all fat is cooked out and bacon is crisp. Remove bacon and all but 2 tsp. bacon fat from pan. Add onion to pan along with salt and pepper. Cook until onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Add brown sugar, apple cider vinegar and continue to cook for several minutes. Add bacon back in along with 1/4 cup water and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until thick and jam-like. Add balsamic vinegar and remove from the heat. Serve.
