HABANERO BBQ SAUCE



Habanero BBQ Sauce image

I found this recipe on PepperFool.com and tried it when I had some extra habanero peppers and a craving for something spicy. I use it to baste chicken, pork or beef on the barbecue, or on burgers, although it is a bit spicy. I'm going to try it next with dark rum instead of water for some extra flavour. Remember to wear gloves when handling the habanero peppers, the smell and burning stay on your fingers for a LONG time!!

Categories     Sauces

Time 40m

Yield 3 cups, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 cups roughly chopped peeled fresh mango (8.7 oz, from about 12 oz whole mango)
2 minced habanero peppers
2 medium garlic cloves, minced (about 2 teaspoons)
1 cup apple juice or 1 cup pure mango juice
1 cup tomato sauce
1/3 cup molasses
2 tablespoons honey
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons bottled lime juice
1 tablespoon tamari
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon onion powder
1/2 tablespoon mustard powder (I used hot, but use what you have)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer until mangoes have completely softened and sauce has slightly thickened, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Puree sauce with an immersion blender, or in the jar of a regular blender, until smooth.
  • Either cool to room temperature and store in refrigerator for up to a month or can in a water bath for 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest habaneros you can find. Look for peppers that are firm and brightly colored, with no blemishes.
  • Wear gloves when handling habaneros. The capsaicin in the peppers can cause skin irritation, so it is important to protect your hands.
  • Remove the seeds and ribs from the habaneros before using them. This will help to reduce the heat of the sauce.
  • Toast the spices before using them. This will help to bring out their flavor.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will help to develop the flavor and thicken the sauce.
  • Taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.

Conclusion:

This homemade habanero BBQ sauce is the perfect way to add a little spice to your next cookout. With its smoky, sweet, and spicy flavor, this sauce is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
