  • 1/2 cup honey, rich and silky
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce, tangy and smoky
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, smooth and fragrant
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder, aromatic and savory
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder, enhancing the flavor profile
  • Salt and pepper to taste for balanced seasoning

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
