Best Ever Sweet and Sour Sauce
A delicious blend of flavors and ingredients come together to create the BEST EVER Sweet and Sour Sauce. This recipe is perfect to lather, coat or dip your food in!
I LOVE grilling season! We grill at least once a week at my house. I love the quick clean up, the no hassle recipes and that we don’t have to heat up our house!
I have been on the hunt for a good sweet and sour recipe for a while now, but none were making the cut. This recipe took some practicing to get just right and I am proud to announce that it is exactly that… just right!
We lathered our grilled chicken with this sauce and highly recommend it to others. I have tried many sweet and sour sauce recipes over the course of my life and can honestly say this is the best I have tried!
It has a perfect texture and the flavor is sweet and our of this world!
This sauce would make an excellent sauce for coating, lathering and/or dipping.
If you have some grilling planned for this summer, definitely try out this recipe- it is sure to be a huge hit will all who try it!

I love sweet & sour sauce. There are some good bottled ones out there, but homemade is the best!

Great sauce!!!! Went wonderfully with meat balls and rice!!!! I found adding the cornstarch with all the ingredients in the beginning made a smoother sauce. First attempt had lumps I had pick out. Second no Lumps at all!!

Going to make this this week! Can't wait! How long can you keep in the fridge?

I love this sauce although to me it tasted more like teriyaki sauce. So I added a little crushed pineapple and man oh man, so yummy I kept sticking my finger in it to, you know, make sure it was still good! Don't tell ok? Shhh

This looks both easy & delicious. I used to just grab a sweet & sour sauce off the shelf...until I actually read the list of ingredients. Why would I want to be feeding my family the junk that is in the jarred sauces? I don't & I won't! Can't wait to try this. Has anyone made it with a little less sugar? Thanks for the post!
