Elevate your steak night with Paula Deen's Cranberried Steak Sauce, a sweet-and-tangy masterpiece that will take your grilling game to the next level. Bursting with the bright flavors of fresh cranberries, orange juice, and apple cider vinegar, this versatile sauce balances zesty acidity with the deep sweetness of brown sugar and ketchup. A hint of Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic adds depth and complexity, while the velvety texture is easily achieved with a quick puree. Ready in just 30 minutes, this handmade sauce pairs perfectly with grilled steaks, roasted meats, or even burgers, making it a must-have condiment for your next feast.
In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh cranberries and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the cranberries begin to burst.
Stir in the ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and orange juice. Mix well to incorporate all the ingredients.
Add the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper. Stir thoroughly to combine.
Increase the heat to medium and cook the sauce, stirring occasionally, for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the sauce from heat and let it cool slightly. For a smoother texture, puree the sauce using an immersion blender or transfer it to a blender and blend until smooth.
Serve warm as a steak sauce or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to one week. Reheat before serving if desired.
