WHISKEY PEACH BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent anything from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• Cool completely and transfer to an airtight container. Refrigerate overnight for the best flavor and then use liberally on grilled or smoked chicken, pork, and fish.

PEACH BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place peaches, tomatoes, onion, bell peppers, cherry peppers, jalapeno peppers, garlic, sugar, vinegar, liquid smoke, herb seasoning, mustard seeds, salt, black pepper, celery seeds, ginger, and cinnamon in a large stockpot. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until peaches and vegetables begin to brown, scraping the bottom of pot frequently to keep from scorching, about 1 hour.
• Reduce heat and simmer mixture until softened and slightly reduced, 30 more minutes. Remove from heat.
• Puree mixture using a hand blender until well blended. Pour mixture, about 1 cup at a time, through a fine mesh strainer; press remaining sauce in strainer with a ladle to remove fibrous portions of tomato skins. The strained sauce should be glossy and thick. Stir in tomato paste and blend until smooth.
• Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the barbeque sauce into the hot sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for at least 30 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

PEACH BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the peaches, peach nectar, ketchup, molasses, vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and adobo sauce in a deep saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have melded. Puree with an immersion blender and let cool.

PEACH BBQ CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium heat, then add the onions and caramelize, stirring occasionally, until soft and deeply golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Deglaze with the cider vinegar and reduce by about half, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar and paprika, then bring to a boil and let simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Meanwhile, preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates, then grill the peaches, flipping once, until they get a nice dark char and are soft, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Place the cooled onion mixture and grilled peaches in a blender. Puree until smooth.
• Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place chicken on the hot grill and cook for approximately 5 minutes; flip chicken and coat grilled side of chicken with the peach BBQ sauce. Allow chicken to cook for another 5 minutes, then flip again, coating with more peach BBQ sauce.
• Cook chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, another 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
• Meanwhile, toss the sweet potato slices in a bowl with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Grill, flipping once, until nicely charred and tender, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Arrange a few slices of grilled sweet potato on a plate, then top with some Tomato Cucumber Salad and lay a chicken breast on top. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve with lime wedges.
• Combine the tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, avocado oil, ginger, garlic, the spices and lime juice in a large bowl, then season with salt and pepper. Toss well, then toss with the arugula.
