Crystal Hot Sauce

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons Crystal hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon clover honey
  • 6 tablespoons clarified butter

Instructions

Combine the hot sauce and honey in a blender. Set aside. In a very small saucepan, heat the clarified butter to 140 degrees over medium heat, using a frying thermometer to access temperature. You may also heat the butter in a microwave oven in a small microwaveable bowl. Promptly turn the blender to low speed and slowly pour the butter in a thin steady stream through the hole in the blender’s lid. Pour this barbecue sauce in a large, nonreactive mixing bowl and set aside.
