How to Make Jack Daniels Dipping Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and whisk until combined and melted.
  2. Stir in the Jack Daniel's whiskey and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened.
  3. Reduce heat to low. Whisk in the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Continue to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the barbecue sauce and hot sauce to taste. Simmer for 5 more minutes, to meld flavors.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more brown sugar for sweetness, hot sauce for heat, or Worcestershire sauce for a more savory profile.
  6. Let the sauce cool completely. If canning, follow proper canning procedures to ensure safety. Otherwise, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
