Quick Mango Chutney Pickapeppa Glaze

FOR TRADITIONAL BARBECUE, CONTEMPORARY SMOKED FOOD, & GRILLED DISHES

A couple of our favorite flavors in the world are mango and Jamaican Pickapeppa, a scrumptious condiment somewhat like a sweet, spicier Worcestershire sauce. Imagine our surprise when we looked for more information about both online and discovered that there is actually a Pickapeppa Mango Chutney. So start with it, if you like, and that will make the recipe superswift. We can’t get enough of this glaze brushed on pork tenderloin or baby back ribs while they are grilling or smoking or served as a sauce when the meat is done. For a different pairing, use it to glaze jerk chicken in its final few minutes of cooking.
