Preparation

  • In a medium Dutch oven or other heavy-duty pot, heat the oil over medium heat.
  • Add the cumin seeds and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Add the onions, anchos, poblano, jalapeño, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, 7 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the whiskey, tomato paste, vinegar, Worcestershire, syrup, sugar, and salt. Return the pan to low heat, and simmer, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat, and let stand 10 minutes.
  • 用一个站搅拌器或浸入式搅拌器,过程s the sauce until smooth, scraping down the saucepan or blender once or twice, about 2 minutes. (If using a stand blender, remove the center of the blender lid to allow steam to escape and to prevent overflow; place a folded towel over the opening to prevent splashing.) For a thinner sauce, pour the mixture through a fine-mesh wire strainer, and discard the solids. Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

    We did not love this sauce. It worked okay with the smoky BBQ pork but we threw the rest out because we didn’t think we would like it on anything else that didn’t have the pork rub on it.

    We found this to be a delicious sauce. Not typical of a BBQ sauce in our experience, but a good depth of flavor and delicious. We'll do again
