Spiked Maple Sauce at Harvester: Calories, Nutrition & Pairings
Harvester Spiked Maple Sauce is an exception when it comes to any kind of sauce that can be described as both sweet and smoky. Using pure maple syrup, a touch of bourbon flavor and a touch of spice, this sauce creates a high-end, sticky glaze that works well with chicken, ribs, burgers and even veggies.
Compared to hot sauces, like Peri-Peri or Naga Chilli, Spiked Maple is a matter of comfort and decadence that serves the diners that prefer bold, but smooth flavors.
