Chipotle Bacon BBQ Sauce

August 10, 2020 · 2 Comments

Bacon Chipotle BBQ Sauce on Chicken

BBQ sauce isn’t hard to make.  But because of the amount of different ingredients involved, it does take some time and can leave your kitchen a bit messy.  But it is worth it.  It is so satisfying to mix all this stuff together, tweak a bit here and there, and wind up with a sauce that you’re proud of.  In this case, I was inspired by some store bought sauce that I first tasted on some wings, Bronco Bob’s Smoked Bacon Chipotle Sauce.  I took my basic barbecue sauce and substituted bacon drippings for the oil, and replaced some of the chili powder with chipotle chili powder, and bingo, we have a winner.  This is great on pork chops, chicken wings, chicken breasts, ribs, etc.  To store, since it contains meat (bacon drippings), you have to either use it within a few days, or freeze it for near future use.
