Ingredients
- ¾ cup bourbon whiskey
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- ¾ cup diced white onions
- 2 large jalapenos chopped
- 2 cups ketchup
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1 Tbsp liquid smoke
- ½ Tbsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Using a medium sauce pan, add whiskey, garlic, onions and jalapenos; simmer over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, or until onions have softened.
- Add remaining ingredients (ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, salt and pepper); stir until well combined.
- Increase heat to medium-high and bring mixture to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer for 20-25 minutes.
- Pour mixture through a fine-mesh strainer to remove onions, garlic and jalapenos.
- Let sauce cool and then refrigerate in an air-tight container for 1-2 days. (Note: This sauce can be used at this stage, but it will taste much better if you let it rest for a day or two in the fridge!)
