MOP (BASTING SAUCE)

[holdemtwice]

A basic mop is used to enhance the flavor of meat you are smoking. you use the mop after a crust has been formed on the meat or the last hour of a short slow smoke.

  4 cups of stock  (chicken , beef , or vegetable)
  1 1/4 cup of Worcestershire sauce
  1 tablespoon of seasonsalt
  1/2cup of cider vinegar
  1/4 cup of olive oil
  3 tablespoons of Chile powder
  3 tablespoons of paprika
  2 tablespoons of dry mustard
  1 tablespoon of cayenne
  2 tablespoons of garlic powder
  1 tablespoon of nutmeg
  1/4 teaspoon of powdered bayleaf

  mix all the ingredients together in a nonreactive pan and heat for45 minutes. the key is to keep this sauce warm . on small meats you will mop every 30 minutes or so and on larger ones  every 45 minutes to an hour.  you start the mopping after the meat is halfway done.

 please post how it turned out and what you used it on .. thank you  keep on smoke'in

I ran out of regular mustard tonight, so I used horseradish mustard and applecider vinegar for the mop.  Mmm Mmm Good!
