Bourbon Peach Barbecue Sauce

Bourbon Peach Barbecue Sauce blends sun-ripened peaches with warm bourbon, tangy cider vinegar, and a hint of smoke for a glossy, balanced finish. It’s fruity with gentle heat from hot honey and paprika, rounded by brown sugar and Worcestershire for depth. Ideal for summer cookouts, it shines brushed over grilled chicken, ribs, or shrimp, and doubles as a dipping sauce.
