This sweet and smoky barbecue sauce is the perfect gift for die-hard winter grillers. Refrigerate it for up to two weeks. Ingredients:
3 large chipotle chiles in adobo, stems discarded |
1/4 cup ketchup |
1/4 cup pure maple syrup |
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth |
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 medium onion, minced |
2 large garlic cloves, minced |
salt and freshly ground pepper |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
Directions:
1. In a blender, combine the chipotles with the ketchup, maple syrup, broth and allspice and puree until smooth.
2. In a medium saucepan, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the onion and garlic and cook over moderately high heat until golden, 5 minutes. Add the chipotle puree. Season with salt and pepper. Cook over moderate heat until thickened, 15 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
3. Applications: Brush on chicken, beef, lamb, pork or ham during the last few minutes of grilling, broiling or roasting. Or, dilute with a little chicken stock and use to deglaze pan drippings.
