Time 15m

Yield 4 - 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cups water
1 12-ounce bag fresh cranberries
Grated rind of one orange
Juice of one orange
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped candied ginger

Steps:

  • Mix sugar with water and bring to boil. Simmer over moderately high heat for about 5 minutes, or until liquid becomes slightly syrupy.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries give the sauce a brighter, more vibrant flavor than frozen or dried cranberries.
  • Don't overcook the cranberries: Overcooked cranberries will become mushy and lose their tartness.
  • Use a good quality maple syrup: A good quality maple syrup will give the sauce a rich, complex flavor.
  • Add some heat: If you like a little heat in your BBQ sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder.
  • Let the sauce simmer: Simmering the sauce for a while will help the flavors to develop and deepen.

Conclusion:

This cranberry maple BBQ sauce is a delicious, versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for chicken, pork, beef, or fish. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for appetizers or as a glaze for roasted vegetables. No matter how you use it, this sauce is sure to be a hit.
