Author: Bob and Robin Young Web page: www.rockinrs.com This is an awesome glaze. Deep and complex flavors. The sweetness of the honey and the hints of orange marry well with the ying-yang of the Port and the mustard. Very easy to prepare.

| Cooking Tips |
| For the Port, we use a 1981 Woodbury, Alexander Valley Vintage Port. You can use any Port, but it should be at least 10 years old. |
| For the mustard, use Plochman's Natural Stone Ground Mustard. |
| For the Balsamic Vinegar we use Napoleon Balsamic Vinegar, 5 year old. Any aged Balsamic should work well. |
