Maple Bourbon Barbecue Sauce

This homemade maple bourbon barbecue sauce is quickly becoming our favorite marinade for all the things!

Another one of our favorite recipes is THIS vinaigrette which we have coined the best ever!

There is nothing like a homemade barbecue sauce for all your grilling, dipping, and marinating needs and this one with maple and bourbon is top notch!

If you know John Paul, he loves smoking and grilling. With these hobbies comes all the different marinades, sauces, and spice rubs. John Paul has tested out lots of varieties of sauces and this maple bourbon barbecue sauce is our favorite!

This barbecue sauce is perfect for chicken or pork. It’s yummy for dipping too! It’s the perfect balance of sweet and smoky with a little tang and spice. It’s not overly spicy so it’s good for all palates!

We love putting it on pineapple for our chicken and pineapple bowls (recipe here). This barbecue sauce is so versatile and so tasty!
