Honey BBQ Sauce

A sweeter flavored barbeque sauce with honey and liquid smoke with a dash of hot pepper sauce.

This Honey Barbecue Sauce is a tangy, flavorful condiment ideal for grilling and dipping. Made with organic ketchup, honey, red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce, it balances sweet and savory flavors with a touch of smokiness from liquid smoke. Dry mustard powder, salt, and pepper add depth and a slight kick, resulting in a thick, glossy sauce that’s perfect for basting meats or serving as a tasty dip for appetizers.
