After being home for about a month now, and trying not to leave unnecessarily, I'm starting to run out of things. BBQ sauce is one of those things. So, in my desire to make a quality low carb pulled pork in the crockpot, I ransacked the cabinets and concocted a new sauce with stuff I had on hand.
This maple bourbon sauce is a little sweet and, to me and mine, it tastes a lot like I remember baked bean sauce tasting. That's a wonderful thing, folks. So, here is my keto quarantine sauce, which is also my new favorite!
