Apple Cider Burger Sauce

Here’s my recipe for a mouth-watering Apple Cider Burger Sauce that’s perfect for your next backyard barbecue or weeknight dinner. This tangy, slightly sweet sauce will take your burgers to the next level and have everyone asking for seconds!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup apple cider
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:

In a small saucepan, combine the apple cider, ketchup, dijon mustard, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.

Cook the sauce over medium heat until it starts to boil. Then, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have melded together.

Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little bit more apple cider to thin it out.

Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool. The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

To use, simply spread the sauce over your favorite burger patty, either on a bun or wrapped in lettuce, and enjoy! This sauce is also delicious as a dipping sauce for sweet potato fries or as a glaze for grilled chicken or pork.

So, fire up the grill and get ready for a taste explosion with this delicious Apple Cider Burger Sauce. It’s the perfect way to enjoy all the flavors of fall in one amazing bite!
