Instructions
- Blend and Strain Watermelon: Blend the watermelon to get about 4 cups of puree. Strain it using cheesecloth to extract the juice, aiming for about 2 cups of watermelon juice.
- Combine Ingredients: To the watermelon juice, add 1/4 cup of liquid smoke, 1 cup of water, 1 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 tbsp of kosher salt, 1 and 1/2 tsp of soy sauce, onion powder to taste, and 1 tbsp of freshly cracked black pepper.
