Rice Vinegar Basting Sauce

28 Reviews

“This basting sauce is excellent brushed on grilled chicken or pork. This recipe makes 1 cup, but it's nice to double the recipe so you have extra to pass around for added flavor. This recipe is high in sugar, so just brush on the last few minutes of cooking so that the meat won't burn” - by Bonnie Meyer

"Love, exactly as written! One quick note: I notice a lot of ppl subbing fresh ginger for jarred or powdered in recipes - Buy a "hand" of ginger, wrap it in plastic wrap then put in a freezer bag, and ..." See moreuse as needed. It's super easy to grate this way - just peel a small amount, grate away, then back in the freezer. Hope that helps someone."
