I've tweaked this maple bourbon BBQ sauce recipe over the years to something I proudly serve with my pulled pork and ribs. It's also delicious on chicken. As the sauce simmers, it will develop a deep, rich color and flavor. The sauce tastes best if made a day ahead of time.

Ingredients

1 cup ketchup
⅓ cup maple whiskey (such as Crown Royal Maple)
⅓ cup apple cider
¼ cup dark molasses
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon liquid smoke flavoring
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Combine ketchup, maple whiskey, apple cider, dark molasses, apple cider vinegar, pure maple syrup, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a medium saucepan. Whisk together over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, 25 to 30 minutes.
Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Sauce will thicken as it cools. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for future use.

Recipe Tips

You may substitute dark brown sugar for maple syrup.

For a fruity twist, use Crown Royal Peach Whiskey.
