Ingredients
1/2 cup honey
12 ounces of a dark beer (porter, stout, brown ale, abbey ale, Märzen, Oktoberfest, Belgian Dark, Pumpkin Ale, etc.)
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon cold water
Directions
Stir in the honey, beer, red wine vinegar and cayenne pepper(optional) into a small pot and bring to a boil.
Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and reduced to 3/4 cup, about 10-15 minutes.
In a very small bowl mix the cornstarch and water together to make a slurry.
Pour the cornstarch slurry into the pot with your sauce and bring to a boil again and then let it simmer over moderate heat until thickened.
