This truly might be the grainy mustard of champions. But don’t just save it for hot dogs. Add it to BBQ sauces, or use it as a glaze on grilled pork or chicken.
3/4 cup bourbon
3/4 cup water
1 cup brown mustard seeds
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
5 tbsp dry mustard powder
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp salt (or more to taste)
In a small mixing bowl, combine the bourbon, water and mustard seeds. Cover with plastic wrap, and allow to steep and absorb the liquid 5 hours or overnight.
Place the soaked seeds in a food processor, and pulse to the consistency you like. Add the vinegar, dry mustard, sugar and salt, and pulse to mix. Transfer to a medium pot, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer to thicken 3 to 5 minutes, then taste and adjust the salt to your liking. Transfer to jars, add the lids and store in the fridge for up to 3 months.
