One bottle, a dozen dinners. If your Sammy D's only ever touches chicken, it is working part time. Here are 12 ways to put that sweet heat to work all week long. It really is an everything sauce: pour it on and you are done.
1. Glaze your wings
Toss crispy wings in Sammy D's for a sweet and spicy finish that beats plain buffalo. This is a game day staple, and we go deep on it in our jerk wings, sliders, and dips post.
2. Turn it into a dip
Use it straight, or stir it into mayo, sour cream, or Greek yogurt for a creamy dip that disappears fast. Great with fries, tenders, or a veggie tray.
3. Use it as a marinade
Coat chicken, pork, beef, or tofu and let it soak before cooking. Full method in our BBQ jerk marinade guide.
4. Level up your burgers
Mix a spoonful right into the meat before you form your patties, then brush on more in the last minute of grilling. No extra spices needed.
5. Sauce your ribs
Brush it on ribs in the last stretch of cooking for sticky, caramelized, sweet heat edges. Low and slow meats love it.
6. Sauce your brisket or pulled pork
Brisket is one of the sauce's best friends. Finish sliced brisket with a coat of Sammy D's, or stir it through slow cooker pulled pork.
7. Roast your veggies
Toss cauliflower, sweet potato, or carrots in Sammy D's before roasting for caramelized, spicy edges. An easy win for the veggie lovers.
8. Build a better sandwich or wrap
A swipe of Sammy D's turns a plain chicken sandwich or wrap into something with a bold, sweet heat kick. It is your new secret ingredient.
9. Drizzle it on pizza
A few dots over a finished pizza, especially anything with pork or pineapple, brings sweet heat to slice night.
10. Boost a rice or grain bowl
Spoon it over a rice or grain bowl near the end for instant depth and a gentle kick.
11. Grill your cheese
Add a thin swipe to a grilled cheese or quesadilla. Sweet, spicy, melty. Trust us.
12. Load up your nachos
Drizzle it over a loaded plate of nachos, or set it out as the dip everyone reaches for. It is a crowd pleaser.
