How To Use
Smoky Honey BBQ is appropriate for anything you want to put on a grill. Sprinkle on salmon filets for Smoky Honey BBQ Salmon, and top that with a drizzle of cherry-laden Smoky Honey BBQ Sauce. It’s a perfect blend to use as a dry marinade on Smoked Pork Shoulder. Use to coat Roasted Potatoes for a snappy outside and a pillowy center. Or smash into Mashed Plantains to give smoky flavor to this culinary blank slate.
Smoky Honey BBQ is delicious on chicken, turkey, seafood, pork, beef, and alternative proteins like tofu or seitan. Toss over bacon and bake for a breakfast treat or bloody Mary garnish. Brush on grilled mushrooms, leeks, or asparagus. Blend into dressings, marinades, sauces, sausages. Stir into or top rice dishes, beans, corn, or cream cheese.
