I made a double batch of this sauce and canned it. I usually do this twice per year. It's definitely worth checking out.
I've been making this Maori sauce for several years:
2 T. finely chopped onion
1 T. vegetable oil
1 C. chili sauce
1 T. Worcestershire Sauce
1 ½ t. garlic powder
½ t. white pepper
¼ C. pineapple juice
1 small bay leaf
¾ C. honey
1 C. tomato sauce
½ t. salt
2 T. brown sugar
1 ½ t. chili powder
1 T. BBQ spice
1 ½ t. liquid smoke
1 T. white vinegar
Sauté onion in vegetable oil until golden brown. Combine with remaining ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, for about an hour. Makes three cups.
I serve grilled boneless, skinless chicken breast on a Kaiser roll with a slice of grilled pineapple and plenty of Maori sauce.
Modifications:
■Use a can of crushed pineapple - puree in blender. Adds thicker body and fruitier flavor to sauce.
■Grilled pineapple: place pineapple slice in brown sugar and then onto grill turning once.
■Tenderize and/or pound chicken flat so it cooks evenly and can be eaten on a bun. Split buns, butter cut sides, and place onto grill until golden brown.
