FOUR SAUCEMEN: Manuka Hot Honey Rib Glaze - 500ml

Sweet heat, straight off the hive

The hot-honey craze, in glaze form. This one pairs New Zealand manuka honey with a gentle chilli for a sticky, sweet-hot lacquer that turns ribs, wings and chicken glossy and irresistible — the sibling to the Manuka Hot Honey Rub, built for the last stretch of the cook.

The flavour

Rich manuka honey sweetness up front, a soft chilli warmth on the finish, and a sticky body that caramelises beautifully. More cosy warmth than fire — sweet, glossy and moreish.

How to cook with it

• Brush ribs late so the honey caramelises without catching.
• Glaze chicken and wings for a sweet-hot, sticky skin.
• Slather pork belly or chops in the final minutes.
• Warm it first so it brushes on thin and even.

In the bottle

A glossy golden-amber glaze with a honeyed aroma and a sticky, brushable body that lacquers under heat.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Sweet manuka honey, a gentle chilli chase — the glaze that makes people ask what you did. Brush it on ribs or wings late so it caramelises without catching. Season first with Blackbear BBQ Chicken Rub and keep Fancy Hanks Jalapeno & Peach Hot Sauce close for a sharper edge.
