Camie's Sweet and Spicy Special BBQ Sauce

Recipe #309752 | 30 min | add private note

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.

SERVES 64 , 2 pints (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 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. 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. 3
    add the rest of the ingredients and let simmer 10-20min stirring occasionally. Flavors will develop as it sits.
  4. 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. 5
    Refrigerate till ready to use, will keep several weeks in the fridge.
  6. 6
    I usually make large batches of this and can it.
  7. 7
    Serving size is 2 tbls and this makes approximately 2 pints. or 4 cups.

Mmmmm, very nice flavor! I halved the recipe, used margarine and real garlic. I am a wimp too, so used just a pinch of cayenne. Thank you for posting! :lol:

    This is absolutely DELICIOUS! We LOVED it! It's sweet yet got a nice kick to it! I did simmer it for slightly bit longer since I wanted it to thicken up a bit. I used it to make Sydney Mike's Canadian Firefighter's Meatloaf. Thank you, Cuistot, for sharing this wonderful recipe, this is definitely a keeper!

    I know is says "spicy" in the name but I'm a wimp lol, I cut back to 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper and it still had a nice kick to it for me. I made this last night, It wasn't overly watery or anything but I took out about a 1/4 (maybe a cup?) of it and thickened the rest with some cornstarch so I could leave the other part thinner, and let the flavors meld in the fridge overnight, 1/4 unthickened with the chicken, and the rest in a bowl. Today it was nice and thick and smelled wonderful as I brushed chicken in the broiler with it. I had just enough to glaze nicely and still serve some heated up on the side. Tasted good on mashed potatoes too! lol. You have a lucky family
