Equipment
- Medium saucepan
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Whisk
- Glass jar or airtight container
Ingredients
- ¾ cup 180 g yellow mustard
- ½ cup 170 g honey
- ¼ cup 60 g apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons 30 g ketchup
- 4 tablespoons 50 g dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon 5 g hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon 2 g Cobanero chili, cayenne pepper, or red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon 3 g garlic powder
Instructions
Step 1
- Add the yellow mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, ketchup, and brown sugar to a saucepan. Whisk until the mixture looks smooth.
Step 2
- Stir in the hot sauce, Cobanero chili or cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well so the flavors spread throughout the sauce.
Step 3
- Cook over medium low heat for 8–10 minutes, stirring often. Keep the heat gentle to prevent the sauce from sticking or burning.
Step 4
- Taste the sauce and add more honey for sweetness or a pinch of chili for extra heat. Remove from the heat and let it cool. The sauce will thicken as it rests. Always use a clean spoon when serving.
