Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup apple butter
  • 1/3 cup steak sauce
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1 1/2 tsps salt

Method
 

  1. Combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan. Heat over medium heat until just simmering, stirring often. Remove from heat.
  2. Use barbecue sauce to baste your favorite grilled meats.

Notes

- For best flavor, let the sauce simmer gently for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Avoid boiling vigorously.
- If the sauce appears too thick after cooling, you can thin it with a tablespoon of water or apple cider vinegar.
- Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. I've found it gets even better after a day or two.
