A sweet and spicy korean bbq sauce with a bit of tang!
I have a super tasty sauce for you today! Come grilling time, I know you’re all going to want to slather this on everythiiiing. From chicken to grilled pizza, this sauce is sweet, spicy, tangy, sticky and soooo good!
Until then, I have something mouthwatering good, using this sauce…coming tomorrow! But this bbq sauce, the flavor! the heat! it’s finger lickin’ good..quite literally, that’s what I was doing, lickin’ my fingers…
If you like to make lots of takeout fake-outs at home, I guarantee you already have all the ingredients for this in your cabinet. It takes you ten minutes start to finish, and lasts in your fridge for a few weeks. Ive drizzled it over pizza, nachos, and coming tomorrow..a korean bbq burrito bowl, & I promise you don’t want to miss that one. Best burrito bowl of my life.
Okay, until then…make this sauce and pour it over allll the things!
