Which pomegranate glaze should I buy?
How to use a pomegranate glaze
- Brush it on in the last 10 to 15 minutes so the sugar sets to a shine instead of burning.
- Keep the rub underneath simple, like salt and pepper or a sweet pork rub, so the glaze carries the fruit and the heat.
- Go thin and build two or three coats on ribs. Toss wings straight off the grill. Every product page shows its Hub Heat rating out of 11.
A milder option
The same maker's Cherry Apple Jalapeño Rib Glaze is mild (3/11).
