Ingredients
- 3/4 cup organic brown sugar
- 3/4 cup organic rice wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup organic tomato paste
- 1/4 cup organic orange juice
- 2 tablespoons organic cacao powder
- 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon organic vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked sea salt
- 1/8 to 1/2 teaspoon organic chipotle chile powder
- 1/8 teaspoon organic cinnamon powder
Directions
Simmer the sugar and water together until completely dissolved. Add the other ingredients and gently simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes. Use a basting brush to paint the sauce on your pre-grilled protein of choice. This is a flavorful glaze, so one or two layers will do. Throw the glazed protein back on the grill over high heat for a few minutes until it caramelizes nicely, but be careful not to let the sauce burn. Remove from the grill and dig in!
Have a safe and happy Independence Day!
