You'll first need to settle in on a bottle of Bourbon Whiskey to make this glaze. It does not have to break the bank, but should be a good drinkable Bourbon Whiskey.

Brown Sugar

This is where the "sweet" element comes into play. Either light brown or dark brown sugar is okay!

Medium Brush Stroke

Honey

...and the "sticky!"

Medium Brush Stroke

Red Pepper

And this is where it gets GOOD! The "spicy" combined with a handful of other fabulous aromatics are the crux of this sauce!

How? The breakdown of sugars in the bourbon and aromatics react with mustard to add tanginess, red pepper flakes or cayenne for balancing heat, and Worcestershire to bolster the other ingredients, creating a "flavor harmony." What is created is a glaze that is not too spicy, not too sweet, and not too tangy, rather something just about right according to the human palate. Right for every vegetable and right for every protein.
