Ingredients

6

peaches, chopped

6

pears, sliced

6

large white onions, diced

30

medium tomatoes, chopped

1 bunch

celery, chopped

6 cups

white sugar

2 tbsp.

salt

4 cups

white vinegar

1 cup

liquid honey

1 cup

Wild Whiskey Smoked BBQ Sauce

3

hot peppers, minced

1 ½  tbsp.

 

pickling spice (tied in cheesecloth bag)

Method
  1. In a large stockpot, combine all of the sauce ingredients. For the pickling spice, tie the cheesecloth well with butcher’s twine, adding extra to tie it to the handle of the pot for easy removal later. Bring the sauce to a low simmer for 2 hours, stirring every once in a while.
  2. Remove pickling spice sachet, then blend the sauce until smooth. Store in canning jars until you are ready to use. If you feel the sauce is too thick, thin with a little apple juice.
