Delve into the world of cannabis BBQ sauce. Pure Hemp explains what it is and how it’s made. Discover the perfect blend of BBQ and cannabis flavors.
In recent years, including cannabis in culinary preparations has become increasingly popular. The infusion of cannabis into dishes and add-ons like sauces is a great way to explore diverse flavors and sensations of cannabis, adding a sensational dimension to gourmet experiences. In this article, we will be exploring a particular condiment: Cannabis BBQ sauce. You will learn every step of the prepping process and some great ideas to incorporate into your cooking.
When you add cannabis to a sauce, it is a good idea to use cannabis-infused butter or oil as a base, as this extracts the cannabinoids of the plant. This process activates all the properties the plant has to offer, allowing the accurate dosage and potency of the final preparation.
Cannabis-infused oils or butter can be added to any food preparations. If you want to spice up your sauce game you can try it with a classic tomato sauce, pesto or even a creamy Alfredo to enjoy with your pasta. Your creativity in the kitchen will come into play when deciding how to infuse your dishes with cannabis.
As mentioned, now we will focus on cannabis BBQ sauce, a fairly new culinary concept where you can merge the flavors of traditional BBQ with the infusion of cannabis. This condiment is often used to marinate meats and veggies before going on the grill or in the smoker. By trying this at home, you can merge the enjoyable outdoor and social time of a barbecue with the therapeutic effects of cannabis.
Traditional BBQ sauce usually contains simple ingredients like tomatoes, sugar, vinegar, onions, garlic and condiments like paprika. Some people also add liquid smoke, which gives it that deep smoky profile while maintaining a sweet and tangy flavor. In cannabis BBQ sauce, the main base is made with the same ingredients plus a cannabis-infused oil or butter. The cannabis will provide its characteristic effects and an herbal twist which intensifies the taste of the sauce itself.
To make cannabis BBQ sauce you will need the following ingredients: tomato sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, paprika, garlic and onion powder, salt and pepper. To infuse your cannabis oil or butter, use a saucepan to mix the buds with the oil and simmer gently for a couple of hours, this will ensure you have a great final product. Strain it after the butter or oil solidifies.
Now gather all your BBQ sauce ingredients and the cannabis oil or butter in a saucepan and simmer for around 30 minutes. Be mindful about the potency of your cannabis infusion and adjust accordingly. You can make it as strong or light as you wish. Once your sauce has been cooking for the recommended time, wait until it cools down and store it in a jar or bottle in your fridge. Now it’s ready for use!
The most popular dish to eat your cannabis BBQ sauce with is obviously meat. You can try it with chicken, steak or ribs, but the list keeps going. If you are not a big meat eater, you can even marinate tofu and vegetables before grilling or baking. Another way of using your preparation is as a dipping sauce for french fries or chicken tenders. The sky’s the limit! Make it your own and try this delicious sauce to expand your culinary horizons.
