So, you know I'll get into the kitchen every once in a while and make up a new BBQ sauce when I find some ingredients that I truthfully love. On this occasion, I was looking for a mildly inexpensive Stout that would offer a spin on my Guinness sauce with some different flavors. Behold Highland Mocha Stout. Thick, rich, full bodied, stout with heavy overtones of chocolate malt and coffee. I knew if I were to make a sauce with it, the sweetness from the chocolate would blend in with the acidity of the vinegar and just perform a level of sweetness without tasting like chocolate. The coffee flavors would be super prevalent, and, well, the yummy, succulent bitterness of the stout would just shine through. Here is what you'll need:
2 cups of ketchup (no corn syrup added)
1 cup of Highland Mocha Stout
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup brown mustard
2 tablespoons chilli powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon molasses
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 Teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Agave nectar (for sweetness)
1 teaspoon died onion flake
1/2 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
Add ingredients to a small pot and simmer on medium low heat while mixing together. Make sure all ingredients meld and are completely mixed in. Cover and simmer on low heat for about 30-40 minutes. Stir every 10 minutes or so that the sauce doesn't burn into the pot. What comes to fruition it's a joyful symphony of flavor that can only bring thoughts of happiness and sunshine. I've saved the rest and have used it on multiple different things since the Steak Sandwich that it was meant for, and it gets better with age. A truly awesome sauce. Just make sure that you have fun with these recipes and you can use them on multiple occasions. You won't be dissatisfied.
