Spiced Plum & Chili BBQ Sauce

Author: Flavelo
Sauces and Gravies Recipes
This sauce is a meeting of holiday aromas and summer fire. The warmth of cinnamon surprisingly complements the heat of chili, while plums provide body and natural sweetness. It makes an excellent edible gift, but it's also a hit with roasted meats (duck, goose) or grilled cheeses.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Saucepan
  • Immersion blender
  • Sterilized jar

Instructions

1 ✓

Sauté the chopped onion, garlic, and chili in the oil.

Tip: Flavors are best extracted in fat.
2 ✓

Add the diced plums, water, vinegar, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

Tip: Leave the cinnamon stick whole so it releases flavor slowly.
3 ✓

Simmer for about 30-40 minutes until soft.

Tip: The plums should completely break down.
4 ✓

Remove the cinnamon stick.

Tip: If left in, it will create hard shards when blended.
5 ✓

Blend until smooth with an immersion blender.

Tip: This homogenizes the texture.
6 ✓

Bring to a boil once more, then fill into jars.

Tip: Hot filling is important for preservation.

Recipe FAQ

It's too runny.
Plum water content varies. Cook it longer without the lid, or chill it—pectin thickens significantly when cold.
