Bona Fide Barbecue Sauce

Recipe #223565 | 2¼ hours | 15 min prep | add private note

Once you've made this homemade sauce, you'll never buy bottled again. I had to guess on the serving size. (Note - if making vegetarian, use an anchovy-free Worcestershire sauce).

SERVES 12 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Sauté onion and garlic in butter until limp.
  2. 2
    Add remaining ingredients and simmer on low heat for 2 hours uncovered while stirring occasionally.
  3. 3
    After reading a review, I made this today by chopping my onion in the food processor quite fine before sautéing. Wonderful, and less chunky. 10-21-07.

    Wonderful sauce that I thought had a nice amount of spiciness without being too over the top. I used a little while cooking some beef and kangaroo for roti wraps and then used extra sauce in the wraps which worked terrifically. Rather than puree I went with a slightly chunky version by dicing the onion very finely.

    This goes great with the ribs my husband smokes. I recommend pureeing the sauce as most people loved the flavor but didn't like the garlic & onion chunks in it. I added 1/2 tsp of cayenne pepper & it had a nice kick to it!
