Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Peach preserves
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.25 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the peach preserves, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, ground ginger, and chili powder.
Add the water to the saucepan to thin the mixture slightly. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
Once the sauce begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 8–10 minutes. Continue to stir occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavors meld together.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the unsalted butter until fully melted and incorporated. This will add a velvety texture to the sauce.
Let the sauce cool for a few minutes before using. It can be used immediately to baste ribs or chicken during the last 10–15 minutes of grilling or as a flavorful dipping sauce.
Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before using.
