Equipment

  • Blender or food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large egg preferably room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard with a hint of honey
  • 1 small clove of garlic finely minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of freshly cracked black pepper
  • 8 ounces of crispy bacon cut into strips
  • 3/4 cup of neutral vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika

Instructions
 

  • The beauty of making your own bacon mayo lies in the straightforwardness of the process. Trust me, you’ll be amazed at how easy this is.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

  • Before diving into the mixing bowl, gather all your ingredients. A blender or food processor is your best friend here. Make sure to have a bowl handy for the finished product. No one likes a mess in the kitchen!

Step 2: Cook the Bacon

  • Fry the bacon in a pan over medium heat until it’s crispy. This might take about 8-10 minutes. Make sure to let it cool and then chop it into fine pieces. Save some bacon grease for added flavor if you like, but be mindful of the amount.

Step 3: Prepare the Base

  • In the blender, add the egg, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend these ingredients for about 30 seconds until well mixed.

Step 4: Add Oil Gradually

  • With your blender running, slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil. This technique will emulsify the mixture, turning it a creamier texture. Watch as it transforms into that beautiful mayo consistency!

Step 5: Incorporate the Bacon

  • Once your mayo reaches that creamy state, it’s time to fold in the bacon bits. Use a spatula to mix them in gently. The bits should be distributed evenly but maintain some texture.

Step 6: Flavor Enhancements

  • At this point, add apple cider vinegar and smoked paprika. Blend again briefly just to combine everything. That’s it! Your Jack in the Box Bacon Mayo is ready to serve.

Notes

Before diving into serving ideas, let’s make sure you get the most out of your bacon mayo. Here are some handy tips:
  • Choose the Right Oil: Neutral oils like canola or grapeseed work best.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh lemon juice and garlic make a noticeable difference in flavor.
  • Don’t Rush the Cooking: Allow the bacon to fully crisp for the best texture.
  • Store for Later Use: Keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
  • Experiment: Try different types of bacon like maple or peppered for a unique twist.
