  • 2 cups blueberries

  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 cup molasses
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke

Instructions

  • In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add the blueberries, honey, and water. Cook the mix, stirring often, until the blueberries begin to soften and burst (approximately 10 minutes).

  • Taste the sauce and add additional salt, pepper, or chipotle pepper (for a hotter sauce) to taste.
