Ingredients

• 2 cups/470ml vodka
• 8 oz bacon
• 3 Tbsp reserved bacon grease

Directions

1. Set your Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker to 150ºF/65.5ºC
2. Bake your bacon for 16 minutes at 400ºF/204ºC until crispy. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
3. Combine all ingredients in a zip-locking bag. Add a stainless steel butter knife to weigh the bag down.

Finishing Steps

1. Strain the liquid into a bowl or glass measuring cup.
2. Refrigerate until there is a pretty solid layer of fat on top.
3. Remove from refrigerator and skim off as much fat as possible. Then, pour through a cheesecloth-lined strainer into a jar for storing. (And pouring!)
4. Enjoy the bacon-y goodness, and try it in Serious Eats’ Ultimate Fully-Loaded Bloody Mary Recipe like we did!
