Whisky BBQ Sauce Recipe
Here at The Whisky Club we love cooking almost as much as we love drinking whisky, so any chance to combine the two and we’re all over it. Of course, splashing single malt into your dinner is probably not something you’re going to do every day, so we reckon this Whisky BBQ Sauce is the perfect solution - one you can keep in your fridge to add a little whisky flavour to (almost) any meal.
The best thing about this Whisky BBQ Sauce is super easy to make. If you’d like to spice it up a little, feel free to add a dash or three of Tabasco sauce to add a bit of heat. Oh, you’ll have sauce for days with this recipe too.
