Heat and Sweet Glaze

[homebrew & bbq]

I came across this while I was looking for something different to try on ribs.

I haven't made it and probably won't. (My family doesn't appreciate that much heat.) But I know there are folks here who like food that bites back.

Strawberry-Habanero Glaze
from The Great Ribs Book

1/2 cup strawberry jam
zest of 2 limes
juice from 2 limes
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons habanero hot sauce
1/4 cup finely minced ginger
1/4 cup finely minced mint leaves

Combine all the ingredients and mix well.

As always, adjust to your own tastes. (For me, it seems like this has waaay too much ginger.)

That is a lot of ginger, but it sounds good. I'm after a sweet heat for some ribs. I might give it a whirl.

Use a grater to scrape the green stuff of the outside of the lime, but stop before you get into the white pithy stuff.
