  • Bourbon Bacon BBQ Sauce

    I was out on chow recipe site and saw this recipe and thought it sounded like it's one to definitely try!

    INGREDIENTS
    •1/2 cup small-dice bacon (about 2 ounces)
    •1/2 cup finely diced red onion (about 1/2 small onion)
    •2 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
    •1 cup ketchup
    •1/2 cup cider vinegar
    •1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
    •1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
    •3 tablespoons bourbon
    •2 tablespoons dark or robust molasses (not blackstrap)
    •2 teaspoons chili powder
    •1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
    •1 teaspoon ground mustard
    •Salt
    •Freshly ground black pepper
    INSTRUCTIONS
    Place bacon in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a small bowl; set aside. Reduce heat to medium low, add onion to the pan, and cook in the bacon fat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 to 60 seconds more.
    Whisk in remaining measured ingredients and season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Stir in reserved bacon and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce is slightly thickened and holds a line on the back of a wooden spoon when you drag a finger through it, about 25 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

    I've made something similar but with more BOURBON!
    Mine uses honey instead of molasses.
    Sounds interesting.

            looks a bit like black jack bbq sauce - apart from the bacon, and that's good stuff

                oh hell yes, you must sample also several times to ensure it is from a good well no a great batch of bourbon.
                and there is not need for all the rest of the stuff yer putting in. just soime ice cubes.

                your recipe sounds good. very similar to ones I have except the bacon. which is a prohibited subtance for me.Not that I am a goat humpin muslim. But the heart doc says not in my recipes are plate any more.

                  Not a big sauce guy, but this one DOES sound good.

                  My best asset however is the inspiration from the members on this forum.
