Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Fresh peaches
- 2 Habanero peppers
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 0.5 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 1 cup Ketchup
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Peel, pit, and dice the peaches into small chunks. Finely chop the garlic, onion, and habanero peppers. Be sure to wear gloves when handling habaneros to avoid skin irritation.
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
Add the minced garlic and chopped habanero peppers to the saucepan. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Add the diced peaches, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, ketchup, honey, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and let it gently simmer for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are soft and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the sauce to cool slightly. Using an immersion blender or a standard blender, carefully blend the mixture until smooth. (If using a standard blender, work in batches and be careful with hot liquids.)
Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings if needed. If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
Transfer the Habanero Peach BBQ Sauce to a clean jar or airtight container and allow it to cool completely before storing in the refrigerator. It can be stored for up to 2 weeks.
Use this spicy and sweet BBQ sauce as a glaze for grilled meats, a marinade, or a dipping sauce. Enjoy!
