Peach BBQ Sauce is a great way to celebrate peach season. It’s savory, sweet and perfectly spiced and works with any meats, as a dipping sauce or however you like to use barbecue sauce.
I first started making fruity bbq sauces about 20 years ago as a teenager and discovered how delicious they are when cooked down and the natural sugars are allowed to caramelize into a sauce.
This sauce can be used within 1-3 months in the refidgerator or it can be frozen or bottled.
To bottle this sauce, add sauce to a clean dry jar, clean the rim of the jar. Add a new clean lid and place the ring on just until finger tight, not too tight. Process in a hot water canner for 20 minutes per pint jar and 35-40 for a quart jar. Place on a counter top to cool and allow 24 hours before checking for a seal on the jar. If it didn’t seal, reprocess or refrigerate or freeze.
