Blueberry BBQ sauce

I received a request for this sauce. In keeping with my use of fruit in many of the things I create, this is one of my many BBQ sauces. Michael really likes BBQ so I am always trying to come up with new creations, this one is not tomato based like many BBQ sauces are.


Blueberry BBQ sauce

Ingredients

2 sticks of butter, unsalted, room temp
3 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup red wine
1 cup of natural molasses
8 cloves of garlic
3 to 6 table spoons of hots sauce - it depends how much of a bite do you want
1 table spoon salt
3 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons of ground mustard
1 teaspoon ground cardamon
2 teaspoons of paprika
3 teaspoons chopped sumac leafs, fresh
1 teaspoons turmeric

Directions

This is one of my no cook sauces.

In the food processor add the butter and molasses and run on high until completely blended. While the processor is running add the spices. Next pour in the wine and the oil. While still running add the garlic and hot sauce. Next slow add the blueberries a half cup at a time until completely incorporated.
Pour the sauce into a jar or container that can be sealed and place in the fridge for at least 24 hours. This sauce will keep for a while in the fridge.


I use this sauce on chicken and pork.

Variations that i have done with this sauce is replaced the blueberries with raspberries or black berries and even cranberries, but with the cranberries add up to a 1/2 cup of raw sugar to cut the tartness.

Enjoy cooking
