Smoky and sweet glaze for grilling

Sticky Honey BBQ Glaze

Author: Flavelo
Sauces and Gravies Recipes
The job of a BBQ glaze is to form a shiny, sticky, flavor-packed layer on the meat. Sugar and honey caramelize onto the meat under heat, while vinegar and tomato acids cut through the fatty flavors. Smoked paprika creates the illusion of hours spent in a smoker.

Instructions

1 ✓

Crush or finely grate the garlic.

Tip: We want garlic flavor, not chunks, in the glaze.
2 ✓

Measure all ingredients into a saucepan: ketchup, honey, sugar, spices, vinegar, garlic.

Tip: The 'dump and stir' method works here as they all need to simmer together.
3 ✓

Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.

Tip: Ensure the sugar dissolves completely.
4 ✓

Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes.

Tip: The goal is for some water to evaporate so the sauce thickens and darkens.
5 ✓

It's ready when thick and glossy. Taste, and add salt or pepper if needed.

Tip: It will thicken further as it cools.
6 ✓

Let it cool to lukewarm before using.

Tip: If boiling hot, it's too runny to baste effectively.

Recipe FAQ

When should I brush it on?
Only in the last 5-10 minutes of grilling! Due to high sugar content, if you apply it too early, it will burn and taste bitter before the meat cooks.
Too sweet.
Add a splash of apple cider vinegar or hot sauce to balance it.
