Spicy Barbecue Sauce Recipe
Looking for a great barbecue sauce recipe? Chef Jay will
show you a few ways to add some zest to the meats you are grilling.
I always recommend that you marinate whatever meat you plan on grilling for at least 1 hour, and up to 24 hours depending on what you are cooking and what kind of sauce you plan on using for the marinade.
If you are going to use a barbecue recipe for sauce with alot of vinegar or other acid, such as lime, you don't need to allow the meat to marinate as long. The acid will allow your marinade to absorb into the meat at a faster rate. For a barbecue rub recipe, on the other hand, you will need to allow a longer time to marinate. But, I guarantee you that you won't be disappointed in the wait. Try this barbecue rub recipe once and you'll never barbecue again without it.
Caribbean Rub
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp allspice
2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp thyme
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Mix ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight glass container. You probably won't have any left though, this stuff is delicious to use in barbecue recipes with pork and chicken. Of course, I do add another special ingredient, 1 teaspoon of ground habanero is usually enough heat for me, but you can add as much as you please!
Honey Barbecue Sauce
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 cup onion, minced
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1/2 cup honey
2 Tbsp cider or sherry wine vinegar
2 Tbsp fresh parsley, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
Directions:
- Heat oil in medium pan. Add onion and garlic, saute on medium high heat until onion is soft and transparent.
- Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Makes 1 cup of sauce.
Now, to raise the heat level of this barbecue sauce recipe, I recommend adding some Belizean Hot Sauce. This habanero sauce will add to the sweet flavor and give you a taste of the Caribbean! Adjust the heat by adding more sauce, but keep the habaneros away from the kids, the heat is powerful.
