How to Make Mark's Blueberry Meat Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup blueberries, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce heat to low, and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency and reduced by about 1/3. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. If desired, strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve to remove blueberry seeds and pulp for a smoother consistency.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more brown sugar for sweetness, cayenne pepper for heat, or vinegar for tang.
  6. Serve immediately over your favorite grilled steak or chicken.
