Ghost Pepper BBQ Sauce

Ghost Pepper BBQ Sauce is real smoke and real heat, a ghost pepper barbecue sauce built for the guy who reaches past the mild bottle every time.

Brownwood Farms takes the hickory-smoked backbone of their best-selling Original Recipe and loads it with dried habanero and ghost pepper, with a splash of bourbon behind it. The Michigan maker lets the flavor land first, the sweet and the smoke, then the burn creeps up slow and settles in for a while. This is not a novelty hot sauce, it is a bbq sauce that happens to bite hard.

Mop it on wings that are supposed to mean something, glaze brisket and burnt ends, or brush it on anything you want to wake up. Start light and build, because the ghost pepper keeps climbing after the first taste.

• Hot wings and drumsticks
