CIROC PEACH SHRIMP
LaTasha Jordan, Regional Manager
Virginia Beach
▷ 1 POUND JUMBO SHRIMP, CLEAN
AND DEVEINED*
▷ 2 TEASPOON CIROC PEACH VODKA
▷ 1 CUP BARBECUE SAUCE
▷ 1 CUP FRESH PEACH SLICES
▷ 1 TABLESPOON BROWN SUGAR
▷ SALT AND PEPPER TO TASTE
Season the shrimp with salt and
pepper. Set aside. In a blender, mix
the peach slices, vodka, brown sugar
and barbecue sauce. Pour the blender
mix into a saucepan and cook until it's
thick. Grill your shrimp on both sides.
During the last 90 seconds of grilling,
brush with the BBQ sauce.
*Salmon could replace the shrimp.
These easy, cheesy bite-sized
beauties are served with a Bourbon
Mustard Dipping Sauce that
brings a nice blend of mustardy
heat, sweet honey and caramel
notes from the Maker's Mark. Chef
Newman of Maker's Mark Star Hill
Provisions recommends using an
ice cream scoop or melon baller to
help form uniform-sized sausage
balls and keep your hands clean.
The meatball mixture can be
refrigerated overnight, which may
help with scheduling and - some
would argue - flavor.
Bourbon Mustard Sauce
▷ 1 CUP MAYONNAISE
▷ 3 OZ. MAKER'S MARK BOURBON
▷ 1/3 CUP YELLOW MUSTARD
▷ 2 TABLESPOONS HONEY
Combine mayonnaise, bourbon,
mustard and honey in a large bowl
and mix well.
Sausage Balls
▷ 2 POUNDS GOOD COUNTRY
SAUSAGE
▷ 2 SLEEVES SALTINE-STYLE
CRACKERS, CRUSHED
▷ 1½ CUP FRESHLY SHREDDED
CHEDDAR CHEESE
▷ 2 EGGS
▷ ½ CUP BUTTERMILK
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a
large bowl, combine crackers, egg
and buttermilk and mix well. Add
sausage and cheese. Mix again,
being careful not to overmix. Cover
and let sit in the refrigerator for 30
minutes to cool. Form the mixture
into balls and place on greased
baking sheets. Bake for 12 minutes
and check the progress. Bake
for remaining 6 minutes or until
cooked through. You'll want some
browning and crunchy exterior.
Serve with Bourbon Mustard Sauce.
