Smoked Honey is where heat meets something more complex. Made with raw honey and morita chile (chipotle) peppers, it delivers a warm, smoky sweetness with a gentle kick — the kind of flavor that makes you reach for the bottle again before you've finished the first bite. This is our mildest hot honey, and the one that works on the widest range of food.
The chipotle pepper gives it a distinct smokiness that plain hot honey can't match. It's not just sweet and spicy — it's sweet, spicy, and smoky, which opens up a whole different set of uses in the kitchen.
Ways to use Smoked Honey: Brush it onto ribs, brisket, or pulled pork as a finishing glaze. Drizzle it over roasted vegetables — butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and Brussels sprouts are all excellent. Use it as a dipping sauce for grilled chicken or smoked sausage. Add it to a cheese board as a condiment alongside aged gouda or smoked cheddar. Stir it into a BBQ sauce to add depth and sweetness. Spread it on warm cornbread fresh out of the cast iron. Mix it into a marinade for salmon or pork tenderloin.
Available in a 12 oz squeeze bottle. Ingredients: Raw honey, morita chile (chipotle) peppers. No preservatives. Store at room temperature. Two-year shelf life. Made in DeGraff, Ohio.
