Chipotle-Bacon-Bourbon Barbecue Sauce Recipe

Winston Rice

Report

This homemade barbecue sauce brings a wonderful smoky spice with the chipotle peppers and bacon, but it's also slightly sweet from the sugar and molasses. It is rich and thick and will stick to your ribs or chicken nicely. Get the grills ready! Here is the recipe.

Instructions

Heat a large saucepan to medium heat and add bacon. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring often.
Add jalapeno and onion and cook 3 more minutes, stirring often, until bacon is nice and crisp.
Add garlic and cook 1 more minute, or until garlic browns nicely.
Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
Bring sauce to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer 30 minutes with an occasional stir. The sauce will slightly thicken. Enjoy!

Notes

You can serve it like this, nice and thick, or you can add a bit of water to thin the consistency.
Heat Factor: Medium. You'll get quite a bit of zing and flavor from the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and other ingredients.
