Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 seedless watermelon
1 ½ cups rum, or as needed

Steps:

  • Rinse the outer rind of the watermelon thoroughly, and pat dry. Set the watermelon in a position so it will not roll over. Press the tip of a funnel through the rind of the melon. If using a plastic funnel, you may need to cut a hole.
  • Situate the melon on a towel in the bottom of the refrigerator or on the counter. Pour rum into the funnel a little at a time, refilling as it seeps into the melon. I start the afternoon before, since we usually leave to go to events in the morning. Allow the melon to marinate at least a few hours, before removing the funnel. Slice just before serving.

Watermelon BBQ Sauce and Pickled Watermelon Rinds image

Watermelon has so much more to offer than just a refreshing summertime snack. And the entire watermelon can be used -- no need to throw away the rind.

Time 30m

Yield 3 cups BBQ sauce and 4 to 6 servings watermelon rinds

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 small seedless watermelon (about 2 1/2 pounds total)
1 1/2 cups ketchup
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
Zest and juice of 2 limes
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons kosher salt
Handful of ice cubes (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Use a Y-shaped peeler to remove the outer green part of the watermelon. Scoop out the pink flesh and place in a blender (you should have about 1 pound 2 ounces); set the rind aside.
  • Blend the watermelon flesh in a blender until it becomes juice. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium saucepan. (The amount of juice you have will vary depending on the watermelon.) You will need 2 cups of juice in the saucepan; transfer any excess to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week and save for another use.
  • Add the ketchup, Dijon, Worcestershire, molasses, coriander, garlic powder, onion powder, 1/4 cup of the light brown sugar, 1/4 cup of the vinegar, juice of 1 lime and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper to the saucepan and whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and reduced by a quarter, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the salt, lime zest, juice of the remaining lime, and the remaining 1/4 cup each light brown sugar and vinegar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring once or twice, until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Cut the rind into 2-by-1/4-inch sticks; transfer to the small saucepan with the brine and stir to combine. Add the ice cubes (and stir until the ice has melted. Let sit for 5 minutes to quickly pickle. Drain the pickled rinds and transfer to a serving bowl.
