Original Recipe Yield 1 1/2 cups glaze
 

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 8 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup gold rum (such as Bacardi Gold®)
  • 1/4 cup dark molasses
  • 3 tablespoons spicy mustard
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Combine brown sugar, butter, rum, molasses, mustard, and cider vinegar in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low. Simmer, stirring constantly, until sugar has melted and the glaze has thickened, about 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Footnotes
