Moore’s Marinades and Sauces – Honey BBQ Chipotle Taco Recipe
Written and photos by Jessica Lewandowski
I cannot tell you how excited I am, now that barbecue season is arriving! As a girl who loves her protein, I’ve been dreaming of spicy chicken wings, loaded burgers, saucy tacos, and cheesey buffalo dips. Moore’s Marinades and Sauces is all over that, and they sent me basically every sauce they’ve made.
Moore’s Marinades and Sauces offers an original marinade, which has a strong smokey and hickory flavor. It’s so versatile, though, that it’s good for marinating every type of meat you can get your hands on. They also have Teriyaki and Zesty Garden Herb marinades. What caught my eye immediately was their expansive line of wing sauces. There’s the traditional Hot Buffalo Sauce, but Moore’s also offers sauces like Blue Cheese Buffalo, Ranch Buffalo, Spicy Habanero, Asian, and, the star of today’s recipe, a Honey Barbecue.
I tasted a little bit of each wing sauce. The awesome part is that these sauces are far more capable than just offering something to toss you famous scratch made chicken wings in. In fact, you should check out the Moore’s Marinade and Sauces Recipes page, which is loaded with creative ideas for all of these flavorful bottles of yum.
I put together my own creative take on the Honey Barbecue Wing Sauce to create a Honey BBQ Chipotle Beef Taco recipe. This recipe will leave you with incredibly tender shredded beef that’s a little spicy, a little sweet, and extra saucy. Even better, it’s a slow cooker recipe, so you can spend more time enjoying the gorgeous weather with a drink in hand – I’m thinking mojitos!
