How to run it
Sauce it right.
- 01
Cook the protein most of the way naked. Sauce is a finish, not a marinade.
- 02
Brush or mop it on in the last 10 to 15 minutes.
- 03
Let it tack up over the heat. Watch the sugars, they scorch fast.
- 04
Hit it again at the table. That's the coat that counts.

Bourbon Blueberry Chipotle BBQ Sauce is a sweet and smoky barbecue sauce and marinade in one bottle, built on a tomato base by Elijah's Xtreme.
This one layers Kentucky bourbon, honey, and molasses over a tart pop of real blueberry, then rounds the whole thing out with smoky chipotle. There is no rough burn here, just deep fruit and smoke that reads sweet up front and savory on the finish. It pours thick enough to cling to whatever comes off the grate.
Brush it on ribs and pork chops in the last stretch of the cook so the sugars set without scorching, or glaze a whole chicken over the coals. Pour it over the meat the night before and it works as an overnight marinade that soaks bourbon and blueberry deep into pork or beef. It holds up as a finishing sauce and a dip too, so keep the bottle within reach of the fire.
