Louisiana Soul | THE barbecue sauce (100 ml)

Barbecue reinvented – with passion and soul

Louisana Soul clearly has little to do with most or maybe even all commercial barbecue sauces on the market.

Dive into the culinary soul of Louisiana with this unique barbecue sauce. "Louisiana Soul" unites the rich tradition of the South in a perfectly balanced blend of exotic ingredients: From Caribbean molasses to Brazilian coffee and Mexican chilies.

With its smoky aroma, a hint of fruity sweetness, and a delicate spice, this sauce is a true ambassador of Southern cuisine. Use it for marinating, dipping, or glazing, and let every bite become a taste experience.

For everyone who wants to feel the vibrancy and warmth of Southern culture on their plate, "Louisiana Soul" is the ideal companion.

Use

This sauce is an all-around asset to your condiment shelf. Use this bold, thick sauce for dipping, spreading or grilling. Its molasses-honey base and slight smoke flavor will give a kick to everything from brisket to roasted vegetables.

Use it as a dip for fish sticks or nuggets, in your slow cooker for “pulled” meat dishes of all kinds, as a glaze on roasted cauliflower, pumpkin, or sweet potatoes. The only thing bolder than the flavor is it’s versatility.

This sauce is mildly warm (spicy), if you need a little more punch (as I do), add a little Louisiana Hot or Louisiana Sun.
 

Note about the alcohol content

I have simmered this sauce for about 40 minutes which greatly reduces the alcohol content, a small percent of the alcohol originally in the Mezcal may remain. When you use Louisiana Soul to cook with as a glaze for meats for example, the remaining alcohol should evaporate.

If you are serving anyone who does not wish to be exposed to any alcohol (e.g. those in recovery from an alcohol use disorder, pregnant women, those with religious restrictions), you may want to indicate the alcohol content. If you are taking the sauce to a gathering as a side sauce/dip, provide a label showing that the sauce may contain small amounts of alcohol.
