Ingredients
- 2 cups BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup apple juice
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 stick unsalted butter
Instructions
- Whether you are making a homemade BBQ sauce from scratch or using a pre-made store-bought sauce, prepare it and add it to a medium sized pot.
- Next, pour in the apple juice, apple cider, water, and butter.
- Heat the sauce over low to medium heat to mount the butter and emulsify into the sauce while stirring occasionally. Do not heat it too quickly or the butter will separate, and you’ll see a thin layer of fat at the top. Usually when I do this I’m slowly stirring it with a rubber spatula or a whisk.
- Once it’s melted you are free to use it on your favorite pulled pork or smoked pork shoulder recipe.
