Peach BBQ Sauce
I’m a huge fan of peaches and this Peach BBQ Sauce really hits the spot. This Peach BBQ sauce reminds me of a peach salsa that also like to fix which actually might taste pretty good along side the BBQ chicken if you were to fix the salsa chunky. I’ll have to upload that recipe and link to it in case any of you want to fix it along with his Sauce recipe.
- 1 pound fresh peaches
- ¾ cup chopped sweet onion such as a Vidalia
- 1½ tablespoons minced fresh jalapeno with seeds
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- ¼ cup cider vinegar
- ¼ cup bourbon
- 2½ tablespoons mild honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- ¾ teaspoon light brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ⅛ teaspoon dry mustard
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- Cut an X in bottom of each peach, then blanch in a medium saucepan of boiling water 10 seconds. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice and cold water and cool. Peel peaches and coarsely chop.
- Cook onion, jalapeño, and a pinch of kosher salt in oil in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add peaches and remaining ingredients and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until peaches are very tender, about 30 minutes.
- Purée in a blender (use caution when blending hot liquids).
- Cooks’ note: Sauce can be made 3 days ahead and chilled, uncovered, until cool, then covered.
Mango BBQ Sauce (dipping sauce/glaze)
If you like Mangos like I do, then you’ll LOVE this Mango BBQ sauce recipe. I have to admit, this isn’t a traditional barbecue sauce since it does not have tomatoes or the other typical base BBQ sauce items. Therefore, it’s really more of just Mango sauce or a Mango dipping sauce. However, since Mangos are about my favorite exotic flavor, I couldn’t resist putting this recipe in here.
- 4 ripe mangos
- 4 chipotle adobado peppers
- 6 TBSP brown sugar
- 4 TBSP vinegar
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- salt and pepper
- Puree mango and chipotle peppers in a blender until you get a smooth paste.
- Pour the paste in a saucepan and cook over medium heat.
- Add brown sugar, vinegar, cumin and salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Retire from stove top and let it cool.
Huckleberry BBQ Sauce & Huckleberry Sauce Recipes
Huckleberries! Ah, my favorite of all fruits. Like many people, I’d never heard of them until I was on vacation a few years ago up in Northern Idaho. Now that I live in Montana, I have great access to all sorts of Huckleberries and Huckleberry products. Since many people may not have good access to Huckleberry products, I’ve listed a number of Huckleberry BBQ Sauce Recipes so you can make it a number of ways using different huckleberry ingredients. Needless to say, making the barbecue sauce from fresh huckleberries is the best.

- 2 tsp. garlic powder
- 2 T brown sugar
- 1 T molasses
- 2 tsp. dry mustard
- 1 tsp. chili powder
- Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and reduce for 20 minutes.
Blackberry BBQ Sauce
I’ve noticed lately in the stores that blackberry BBQ sauce and other glazes and basting sauces with blackberries and raspberries seem to be getting more popular.

Apple and Honey BBQ Glaze
For a sweet glaze for just about any meat dish, try this wonderful Apple and Honey BBQ glaze. Personally I think its great on chicken or pork. I even have two different recipes for this honey BBQ glaze depending on your tastes. This is not a true BBQ sauce so it is a glaze or basting sauce but boy are both of them great!

- ¼ cup Brown Sugar
- 2 teaspoons dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom

Honey BBQ Sauce Recipe (with Molasses & Brown Sugar)
Here’s what I call one of the more complicated (plenty of ingredients) Honey Barbeque Sauce Recipes. Not ONLY does it contain honey to make it sweet, it also has Molasses and brown sugar so this sauce has a great sweet flavor. This recipe also has a lot more ingredients compared to some of the other Honey Barbeque sauce recipes I have listed so far so I classify this one as more complex even though there’s nothing special or hard about it. It’s just a larger list of ingredients.
As a note about Molasses. If you have your favorite brand of molasses that you like to use great. For this BBQ Recipe, and for anything with molasses, I’m a fan of “Grandma’s Molasses”. My grandmother (yes for real!) never used any other brand and she hooked me on this molasses when I was a kid.
- 1 cup honey
- ¼ cup molasses
- 3 tablespoons ketchup
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
- 1 tablespoon meat tenderizer
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon minced garlic
- ¼ cup steak sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
- 1½ cups brown sugar
- In a medium bowl, stir together the honey, molasses, ketchup, cinnamon, paprika, ginger, seasoned salt, meat tenderizer, ground black pepper, salt, oregano, garlic, steak sauce, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and brown sugar until well blended. Then cover, and refrigerate until ready to use.
