Honey Bourbon Fire Sauce
1 onion, chopped
4 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup premium bourbon
32 ounces honey
1 (16 ounce) jar picante sauce
1 (16 ounce) jar hot salsa
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
1 cup tomato-vegetable juice thingytail
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1 In a large saucepan over medium heat, saute the onion and garlic for 10 to 15 minutes, or until onion is caramelized. Reduce heat to low and pour in about 1 cup of bourbon to deglaze the pan. Return saucepan to medium high heat, add the remaining bourbon, and bring to a slow boil for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook out of the bourbon.
2 Add the honey, picante sauce, hot pepper sauce, tomato paste, tomato-vegetable juice and ground black pepper and stir well. Bring this mixture to a slow, rolling boil for about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat, cover and cool in the refrigerator.
3 Marinate your meat in a separate large, nonporous bowl for 3 to 4 hours, pouring sauce over meat. Boil remaining sauce for 10 minutes and serve with meat, if desired. Discard any excess marinade.
