APPLE BUTTER BARBECUE SAUCE
I saw jars of apple butter BBQ sauce at an apple orchard a few weeks ago. I thought this was a splendid idea-especially for ribs. I've scoured the Internet, and this recipe looks like the best bet. It's originally from Smuckers, (featuring their apple butter). That said, I made a large batch of apple butter (Recipe #70016), so I'm using homemade. Again, use what you can get.

Steps:
- Add everything together. Well, that's where their recipe ends. I think that's silly. So, let's continue.
- Sauté the onion in a frying pan with a little bit of olive oil, medium heat. Cook till translucent.
- Add the garlic, cook for about a minute.
- Put everything into a sauce pot on medium heat, stir everything together.
- Before a boil begins, drop the heat to low and simmer for 15-20 min., stirring frequently.
- Take it off heat, let it cool for 30 minute (unless you're canning, of course).
- Store it however you wish. It should keep in the fridge for 30 days, in a freezer for longer, or just can it.
Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. Different apples will give your sauce different flavors. For a sweeter sauce, use sweeter apples like Honeycrisp or Fuji. For a more tart sauce, use Granny Smith or Pink Lady apples.
- Don't peel the apples. Peeling the apples will remove some of the flavor and nutrients. Just core and chop the apples before adding them to the sauce.
- Use a good quality apple cider vinegar. The apple cider vinegar will add a nice tang to your sauce. Make sure to use a vinegar that is made from 100% apple cider.
- Let the sauce simmer for a while. Simmering the sauce will help the flavors to develop and deepen. Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or up to an hour.
- Taste the sauce as you go. Adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more brown sugar, vinegar, or spices.
Conclusion:
Apple-flavored BBQ sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of foods. It is perfect for chicken, pork, beef, and even fish. You can also use it as a dipping sauce for appetizers or as a glaze for roasted vegetables. So next time you are looking for a new BBQ sauce, give apple-flavored BBQ sauce a try. You won't be disappointed.
