Harvest Ember - Pumpkin & Maple BBQ Sauce
arvest Ember – Pumpkin & Maple BBQ Sauce is fall fire with backbone.
This isn’t pumpkin pie in a bottle. It’s structured autumn depth layered over smoke and controlled heat. The first note is roasted pumpkin — earthy, slightly sweet, and smooth. Then real maple syrup steps in with warmth, not candy sweetness.
Apple cider vinegar tightens the frame and keeps the profile sharp. The fermented red pepper backbone provides natural tang and layered depth. Molasses adds body. Smoked paprika and chipotle bring low ember smoke. Habanero heat builds steadily underneath, warming the finish without overwhelming the harvest character.
There’s balance here: maple rounds the edges, vinegar keeps it bright, pumpkin gives it body, and heat keeps it alive.
Built for ribs, pork shoulder, smoked turkey, grilled chicken, burgers, sausages, and brushed lightly over roasted vegetables. It caramelizes beautifully late in the cook and holds up to real flame.
Autumn sweet. Ember heat. Built for smoke.
