Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup bourbon
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the bourbon, brown sugar, soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and ground black pepper.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir the ingredients together using a whisk. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Once the mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and allow it to continue simmering. Stir occasionally, ensuring the ingredients are well incorporated and the sugar completely dissolves.
Let the glaze simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes, or until it thickens slightly. The glaze should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the glaze to cool slightly. As it cools, it will thicken a bit more.
Transfer the bourbon glaze to a clean jar or bottle. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
When ready to use, warm gently over low heat before drizzling over your favorite dishes such as grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or even as a dipping sauce.
