How to Make Zesty Peach Barbecue Sauce

  1. Prepare a boiling water canner.
  2. Heat jars and lids in simmering water until ready to use. Do not boil.
  3. Set bands aside.
  4. In a large saucepan, combine:
  5. - 4 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches
  6. - 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  7. - 1 cup ketchup
  8. - 1/2 cup brown sugar
  9. - 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  10. - 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  11. - 2 tablespoons honey
  12. - 2 tablespoons smoked paprika
  13. - 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  14. - 1 tablespoon onion powder
  15. - 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (or more, to taste)
  16. - 1 teaspoon salt
  17. - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  18. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  19. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens to the consistency of a thin commercial barbecue sauce (about 25-30 minutes).
  20. Ladle the hot sauce into hot jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
  21. Remove air bubbles using a non-metallic utensil.
  22. Wipe the jar rims clean.
  23. Center a hot lid on each jar.
  24. Apply the bands and tighten to fingertip tightness.
  25. Process in a boiling water canner for 15 minutes (adjust for altitude).
  26. Carefully remove jars and let cool completely.
  27. Check lids for a proper seal after 24 hours. The lid should not flex up and down when the center is pressed.
