Figs
Remove the stems from the figs and slice in half lengthwise.
Place figs and plums (if using) in a large, glass heat safe dish. Pour honey mixture over figs.
Smoke the fig mixture for 3 hours at 175-200 degrees F.
Remove figs from smoker and transfer to a large pot.
Add remaining honey, pomegranate molasses (or substitute pomegranate juice), and red wine. Stir to combine.
Simmer over medium hot for at least 30 minutes until mixture has reduced. Stir in fresh lemon juice.
When mixture is cool enough, place in a blender and pulse until you reach desired consistency. Taste and add sea salt or additional honey if desired.
*You can also use 5 cups of dried figs if unable to find fresh figs. Using dried figs yields a sweeter jam.
*1/4 cup of pomegranate juice may be substituted for pomegranate molasses.
