This Peach BBQ Sauce for Grilling Perfection comes together in about 30 minutes and involves one pot for a easy weeknight dinner that your family will love!
Flavorful Ingredients You’ll Need
Before we jump into the cooking process, let’s break down what you need to make this BBQ sauce that everyone will be raving about!
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and chopped
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Let’s Get Cooking!
In a medium saucepan, mix together the chopped peaches, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Smell that? All those lovely aromas melding together already!
Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to boil. This should take about 5-7 minutes. The smell should be wafting through your kitchen. Trust me, you’ll want to take a deep breath!
Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. You’ll want to cook it down until it thickens to your desired consistency. I usually go for a sauce that coats the back of a spoon.
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before using it as a marinade or glaze for your grilled meats. Seriously, the best part? You can just pour it all over your chicken or ribs and feel like a BBQ genius.
Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Trust me, you’ll want to keep this around for last-minute grilling sessions!
