BLUES HOG: Raspberry Chipotle BBQ Sauce – 709g

Sweet raspberry, smoky chipotle heat

Blues Hog Raspberry Chipotle fuses the sweetness of ripe raspberries with a smoky pop of chipotle heat — a fruity, sticky, competition-grade sauce that turns a tray of wings into the first thing to disappear. Sweet up front, warm on the way out, and built to glaze.

The flavour

Bright, jammy raspberry leads, then a smoky chipotle warmth builds on the finish — fruity and sweet, but with enough backbone to keep it interesting. Thick enough to cling and caramelise into a glossy, sticky glaze.

How to use it

• Glaze chicken wings in the last 10 minutes of cooking so the sugars catch without burning.
• Baste pork ribs through the back end of the cook for a sticky, fruity lacquer.
• Brush over smoked or roast chicken as a finishing sauce.
• Stir a spoonful into a dipping sauce for nuggets or halloumi — the rogue move for the kids' table.

In the bottle

Thick, glossy and pourable from an easy squeeze bottle — glazes and bastes straight onto the meat with no decanting.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Fruit and fire is a smuggler's favourite trick — sweet enough to win the table, smoky enough to keep the grown-ups honest. Season wings with Smoky Pastures Sweet Dreams Rub, cook them hot, then glaze with Raspberry Chipotle in the last few minutes. A little Tracklements Fresh Chilli Jam on the side cuts the sweetness clean.
