This unusual barbecue sauce recipe incorporates pomegranates. Created by Jessica from the food blog How Sweet It Is, the sauce was designed to go with an apple slaw-topped saucy chicken sandwich. However, you could easily use it in a variety of other dishes.
The flavor-packed sauce is "fairly tart" due to the molasses and pomegranate juice, so you can adjust yours by adding heat or making it less sweet. The saucy pomegranate barbecue chicken is an excellent fall meal, especially with the seasonal slaw on top.
the pomegranate barbecue sauce recipe calls for ingredients including ketchup, pomegranate juice, honey, pomegranate molasses, garlic, apple cider vinegar, dijon mustard, worcestershire sauce, onion powder, smoked paprika and freshly ground black pepper.
