Vermont Pure Maple Syrup

[Stucue74]

I got a gift from a business client in the mail today---Vermont Pure Maple Syrup. Not a big syrup fan, but the bottle says it can be used as a glaze on meat. I guess it would kind of be like putting a jelly on ribs for the last hour. Anyone ever tried this?

We order their sugar free variety. Its much more runny.

I have heated up the regular to make it less "gooey" and injected it into a turkey breast before smoking.

Love maple turkey. Its pretty darn good.

Mike, that sounds pretty damn good. I'm not a big ham guy, but love it when it's smoked and nice and glazey. I'm going to try this one next Christmas.

Thanks.

How do you think it would treat Pork Butt?

[Bigmista]

Mofo,

I would try it on the shoulder insted of the butt. More like ham.

reminds me of randy quaid in "las vegas vacation".

"Man, the bread puddin' is extra runny tonight!"

the last time I made fatties (about 3 weeks ago), I used maple syrup and apple cider as a glaze/basting sauce. use two parts maple to 1 part apple. reduce it over medium heat to about 2/3 the original qty. (that means heat it to boiling and watch the steam float into your kitchen. when there's about 2/3s the original amount of liquid, take it off the heat) and use part as a basting sauce. use the remainder as a glaze when they're done.

abso-farking-lutely outrageous.

'course you could just use the maple sausage, too, and save the aggrevation. but that ain't no fun, either, is it?
