PEPPERONI JAM

Steps:

• Place the pepperoni in a medium heavy-bottomed skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat begins to render and the pepperoni begins to crisp, about 5 minutes. Strain the pepperoni and reserve 2 tablespoons of the rendered fat in the skillet.
• Add the onions to the skillet and sauté, stirring often, over high heat until translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cherry peppers, roasted red peppers and pepperoni and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes until everything is incorporated.
• Stir in the vinegar, brown sugar and oregano and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the mixture is dark, caramelized and syrupy, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 weeks. Use as a topping on your favorite grilled cheese or pizza. It's also great on hot dogs and cheese plates.
