2 Ounce Bacon, diced
Step 5
Add the butter and onion to the bacon fat and cook until the onion is translucent. Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly, until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes. Pour in the milk and whisk until smooth. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the sauce coats the back of a spoon, 3-4 minutes. Add the Traeger Chicken Rub and mix well.
