This is a MESA Grill recipe. I made mostly to decorate the plate for Pan Roasted Pork Loin with Ancho Bourbon Sauce. The Smoked Red Pepper Sauce was the star of the plate, though. If you don't grill the red peppers, you can roast them in the oven with your garlic on 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Just put some canola oil, salt and pepper on the red peppers and roast them on a baking sheet. The great smokey flavor of the chipotles is a fiery backdrop adding just enough heat. The honey chills out the usually harsh taste of the red bell peppers. My family kept asking for more Smoked Red Pepper sauce. It has a beautiful orange-red color. It's easy and goes on anything.
