For a milder sauce, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of scotch bonnet pepper. Feel free to adjust the amount of brown sugar to suit your preference for sweetness. The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. The flavors will continue to develop over time. This sauce is excellent on grilled chicken, pork, or fish. It also makes a fantastic dipping sauce for fried plantains or sweet potato fries.
