Maple Balsamic Chipotle Barbecue Sauce

BBQ Sauce Feature

When our Vermont Maple Balsamic Vinegar first filled the fusti we were off to find the ideal barbecue sauce. The combination of chipotle and maple flavors makes a wonderful barbecue sauce and replacing white vinegar with the maple infused balsamic gives this mixture deep notes of sweet and smoky.Ā  We first used this sauce in our Fall-off-the-bone Pork Back Ribs but itā€™s also great on chicken or any meat that hits the grill. This is our spin on Sara Fosterā€™s recipe from Leiteā€™s Culinaria. Itā€™s one of those throw-it-all-in-a-pot-and-let-it-do-its-thing recipes.
