This sauce is best applied during the last 5-10 minutes of grilling to avoid scorching due to the high sugar content. Don't be alarmed by the strong vinegar aroma while cooking; the final flavor is balanced and complex. For a spicier kick, increase the amount of red pepper flakes. The sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
