For a deeper flavor, consider using maple syrup instead of brown sugar. A splash of orange liqueur or a teaspoon of orange zest can brighten the sauce. The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can use an immersion blender to puree it slightly after cooking.
