Tips & Tricks (5)

Peach Ripeness Matters 🍑
Use fully ripe, soft peaches for maximum natural sweetness and deeper flavor complexity in the BBQ sauce.
Bourbon Selection Technique 🥃
Choose a mid-range bourbon with caramel and vanilla notes to complement the peaches without overpowering the sauce's delicate flavor profile.
Blending Consistency Hack 🌪️
For a smoother sauce, briefly blend the cooked peaches and ingredients, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any fibrous bits.
Spice Layer Building 🌶️
Toast the smoked chili powder briefly in a dry pan before adding to the sauce to enhance its smoky depth and release more complex flavors.
Storage & Flavor Development 🧊
Let the BBQ sauce rest in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours before using to allow the flavors to meld and intensify.
