This glaze works on ribs, pork chops, chicken, salmon, and even grilled peaches. The bourbon adds depth and the sugar caramelizes into a shiny coating.
What You’ll Need:
- ½ cup bourbon
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup ketchup
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
How to Make It:
- Simmer the bourbon in a saucepan for 3 to 4 minutes to cook off the harsh alcohol. Take the pan off the heat before adding liquor near an open flame.
- Add everything but the butter. Simmer 15 to 20 minutes until syrupy.
- Whisk in the butter. Cool slightly before using.
Pro Tip: Brush it on during the last 5 to 10 minutes and apply two coats for a lacquered finish.
