Description

Try this sticky, Bourbon-spiked alternative to buttery hot sauce for your next batch of chicken wings.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup bourbon whiskey

• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar

• 1/3 cup ketchup

• 1 tablespoon white vinegar

• 1 tablespoon hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot ®)

• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 tablespoon honey

• 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

1 Stir the bourbon, brown sugar, ketchup, white vinegar, hot sauce, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, honey, and butter together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook, whisking occasionally, until the mixture begins to bubble. Reduce heat to low and cook at a gentle simmer, whisking occasionally, until the sauce thickens nearly to the consistency of maple syrup or molasses, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
