Shamelessly stolen from MeatHunter:
 
Quote Apple molasses...dates back to the Colonial days where they made it so it would last thru the year without spoilage. Would even outlast the hard cider they made. Basically what you do is boil and reduce Apple cider to 1/7 the original volume but have seen where people go as far as 1/10th. I started with 2 gallons and reduced to fit into a 750 mil wine bottle. Provided that the container you plan to store it in is clean/sterile, one can leave it out on the counter.

I went to 1/7th the original volume and it is very very thick. Like cold molasses. The taste is super intense of sweet apple.

i took about 1.25 gallons of apple cider today and reduced it down to a pint. loaded it into a mason jar and gave it the hot water bath treatment for about 15 minutes. will keep it in storage for a while until the need calls for it. it is a nice rich dark reddish-brown and has a really deep, carmelised, "cooked apple" flavour that is very intense. good stuff!
 
the first thing i am thinking is adding it to any sausage or jerky that i might make, but i'm also thinking it might go great with other projects, including bbq pork, ribs, and possibly even for bacon, canadian or otherwise. we'll see what comes up!
