How to Make Bourbon Barbecue Sauce
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, minced jalapeños, and minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in the ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Simmer the sauce gently for 10 minutes, stirring frequently, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Stir in the bourbon and cook for another 3-5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and let the sauce cool completely, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to deepen.
- Once cooled, transfer the barbecue sauce to clean, sterilized jars or bottles. Seal tightly.
- Label your jars with the date and store in a cool, dark place for up to 2 months.
