How to Make Shirley Guam Bbq Sauce
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, ketchup, pineapple juice, ginger, garlic, onion powder, and pepper until smooth.
- Add the cornstarch slurry (cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons of water) and whisk until fully incorporated.
- Marinate your chosen meat (beef, chicken, or pork) in at least half of the sauce for a minimum of 2 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your grill, smoker, or oven to medium-high heat.
- Place the marinated meat on the grill, smoker, or baking sheet and cook according to your preferred method and doneness. Baste generously with the remaining sauce during the last 20-30 minutes of cooking, ensuring the sauce caramelizes beautifully.
- Let the meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious Shirley Guam BBQ feast!
