GOCHUJANG BARBEQUE SAUCE



Gochujang Barbeque Sauce image

This is a unique barbeque sauce I made using heirloom tomatoes from my backyard. For longer storage, can the sauce in a water bath. Make sure the water completely covers Mason jars, and the water reached a rolling boil for 15 minutes. If using the sauce within the next week, store it in the refrigerator.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup gochujang
1/4 cup mirin
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp sesame oil
1 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 Tbsp fish sauce - optional but it really brings it together
1 Tbsp avocado oil

Steps:

  • Over a low simmer, add the avocado oil, garlic and ginger and cook long enough to soften, no more than 2 minutes. Next, add the remaining ingredients and let simmer over low heat for 10 minutes to combine. Remove from heat until ready to use.
  • Add sauce to grilled meats such as Smoked Baby Back Ribs. Add the sauce at the end since any sauce with sugar will burn on the grill or in the oven.
