To marinate, pour the sauce over your meat and let it sit for at least 30 minutes before cooking. For grilling, brush the sauce onto steaks during the last few minutes of cooking to create a delicious glaze. It can also be served alongside cooked meats as a dipping sauce. For a quick flavor boost, stir it into pan juices after searing meat to create a simple gravy. Its sweetness also makes it a good addition to slow-cooked dishes.
