    Maple Glaze Ingredients:

    maple syrup bottle with pepper, rosemary, paprika, garlic and salt in small white bowls

    • Pure maple syrup ~ A must have for this recipe, not the same as pancake syrup, no substitutions!
    • Granulated garlic ~ Garlic is the perfect savory compliment to the sweet maple syrup.
    • Black pepper ~ Adds a spicy kick to the glaze.
    • Smoked paprika ~ The secret ingredient in most grilling rubs. It adds the perfect balance of flavor with a hint of smokiness.
    • Kosher salt ~ A bit of salt is a must have for grilling meat.
    • Ground rosemary ~ Fresh or dried rosemary works great in this recipe. If you are injecting the glaze, the ground rosemary works best.

    saucepan with maple glaze ingredients

    Great Recipe Ideas Using Maple Glaze:

    This maple glaze is so good that we have tried it on just about everything we grill. It has so much flavor and makes the best tasting grilled meats.

    Maple Glazed bone in ham

    Maple Glazed Ham is so simple to make for any holiday meal. This ham has been the centerpiece of our Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. It's always a crowd favorite.

    Maple Glazed Baby Back Ribs

    Maple Glazed Ribs are outrageously delicious. Like nothing you can get from a bbq restaurant, these ribs are sticky sweet and perfectly smoked. We never have leftovers when these ribs are on the menu.

    Chicken Wings on a platter, parsley garnish

    Smoked Maple Wings were the star of the show at our last get together. They are so simple to make on the grill and of course would work with chicken tenders or chicken thighs too. 

    Pork chops on a grill with rosemary and baconMaple Glazed Pork Chops are always a favorite weeknight dinner.  Thick and hearty pork chops are the perfect combination with the maple and rosemary flavors. 

    Add this Maple Glaze to practically anything you are grilling this week. It's sure to make the best holiday ham, smoked ribs or chicken. The sticky sweet glaze has the perfect peppery bite and loads of garlic and herb flavors.
