CHIPOTLE BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the ketchup, beer, vinegar, jelly, brown sugar, mustard, cumin, chipotle pepper, paprika, and salt. Bring to a simmer, and cook a few minutes until slightly thickened.

POMEGRANATE-CHIPOTLE BBQ SAUCE

• Reduce heat to medium and simmer 30-45 minutes, or until thickened.
• Store in the fridge.

CHIPOTLE BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large, heavy saucepan heat the oil over medium heat and add the onion and garlic. Saute until they begin to wilt. Add the ketchup and chile paste and saute for 4 minutes. Add all of the remaining ingredients stir and let simmer for 30 to 40 minutes. As the sauce thickens, stir more often so it does not scorch. Remove the sauce from the heat and allow it to cool. Place the sauce in a blender and puree. Store in the refrigerator.
• Place the ancho and Mexican chiles in a large saucepan and cover them with the chicken stock. Add the onion and garlic. Bring the stock to a boil over high heat, reduce heat and allow to simmer for about 15 minutes or until the peppers have absorbed some liquid and have become soft. Put the pepper mixture, cooking liquid, and chipotle peppers into a blender. Blend on low speed, increasing to high speed as the puree combines.

HONEY CHIPOTLE BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Lightly coat the bottom of a large sauce pan with vegetable oil and bring to medium-high heat. Meanwhile sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of salt onto a small area of a cutting boards. Place your minced garlic on top of this. Take a chef's knife and turn the blade paralell to the board, then place the fingers of your free hand against the side of the knife blade (this should be facing up now) away from the sharpened edge. Press the blade down against the garlic and pull the knife along the board towards you in very short strokes. Be careful to keep the sharp side of the blade against the board and away from you at all times. Be sure to pull the garlic back into a pile and toss it with the salt on occasion. Add salt if there isn't enough friction to crush the garlic. Continue this until you have achieved a paste like consistency. (If this process as described is unclear or undesirable then 1-2 tablespoons of garlic paste can be substituted. There are also numerous demonstrational videos online if I simply wasn't clear enough. Try a search for "how to make garlic paste".).
• Once the pan has come to temperature add the onion along with a healthy pinch of salt and saute for several minutes, stirring occasionally, until it has become transparent.
• While the onion is cooking open the can of chipotle peppers. If you desire a sauce with a smokey medium heat split the peppers open and scrape down the insides to remove the membranes and seeds. If this is your first use of chipotles this is highly recommended. If, however, you desire a sauce with a more intense heat feel free to use some or all of the seeds/membranes. In either case roughly chop the peppers and reserve the adobo sauce (this is the packing liquid from the peppers). As with all hot peppers you should be careful not to touch your eyes or any other sensitive areas until you have washed your hands thoroughly.
• Once the onion has become transparent add the garlic paste. Continue cooking for a few minutes, usually about 2 should do.
• Stir the lemon juice, black pepper, paprika, dry mustard, and cumin into the onion and garlic mixture. Cook this mixture for only another minute or two.
• Carefully place the onion and garlic mixture into a blender. Add the red wine vinegar, adobo sauce, chipotles, and worcestershire sauce. Puree all ingredients until they reach a smooth consistency. This can be done with a food processor or immersion blender if your prefer, however I would highly recommend a good quality blender be used instead.
• Return the contents of the blender to your large saucepan and add the tomato sauce. Stirs these together thoroughly while bringing the sauce to a simmer. Continue cooking covered for 10-15 minutes.
• Check the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add the liquid smoke here if desired. Stir the honey into the sauce slowly. For best results I would suggest adding the honey in a slow stream in two or three separate installments; stir thoroughly while pouring and cook the sauce for a few minutes between additions while stirring constantly.
• Return the sauce to a simmer and cook covered for an an additional 15-20 minutes. Check the sauce and adjust seasoning as needed. If a thicker consistency is desired continue cooking to reduce the sauce (also bear in mind the sauce will thicken as it cools).
• Allow the sauce to cool completely then refrigerate.
