How to Make Habanero Peach Bbq Sauce

  1. Roughly chop 7-8 habanero peppers (remove stems and seeds for less heat).
  2. Drain 2 (15-ounce) cans of sliced peaches, reserving 1/2 cup of the juice.
  3. In a large saucepan, combine the chopped habaneros, peaches, 1 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons yellow mustard, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat).
  4. Stir in the reserved peach juice.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  6. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  7. Carefully blend the sauce using an immersion blender or transfer to a regular blender (vent the lid to avoid explosions) until smooth.
  8. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. You can add more brown sugar for sweetness or more habaneros/cayenne for heat.
  9. If canning, follow safe canning procedures for processing the sauce in 1-pint jars. Otherwise, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
