For a deeper, richer flavor, consider using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar. Adjust the amount of garlic powder and dry mustard to your personal preference. A pinch of cayenne pepper can also add a delightful hint of heat. This sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Experiment with different fruit combinations. Peaches, nectarines, or even cranberries can be used to create unique flavor profiles.
