I've been making this BBQ sauce for years and I finally wrote down the recipe at my oldest instance. This sauce is thin, somewhat sweet with a little kick at the end. I use this to marinade our ribs as well as for basting, dipping etc. Ingredients:
1 cup brown sugar |
1/2 cup butter |
1/4 cup water |
15 ounces tomato sauce |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar |
1 tablespoon garlic powder |
1 teaspoon onion powder |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne |
1/2 teaspoon cumin |
1/4 teaspoon oregano |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1/4 teaspoon ground dry mustard |
1 pinch salt |
Directions:
1. in a medium sauce pan over medium heat mix butter, brown sugar and water. Bring to a boil stirring frequently. Boil to 250* not quite hard ball stage.
2. reduce heat to a simmer and add tomato sauce. The sugar mixture may seize depending on the temperature of the tomato sauce. That's fine, just stir until the sugar mixture dissolves.
3. add the rest of the ingredients and let simmer 10-20min stirring occasionally. Flavors will develop as it sits.
4. If you want a thicker sauce cook the butter and sugar longer, but keep a close eye on it so it doesn't burn. It'll thicken up in the fridge.
5. Refrigerate till ready to use, will keep several weeks in the fridge.
6. I usually make large batches of this and can it.
7. Serving size is 2 tbls and this makes approximately 2 pints. or 4 cups.
