Whew! I thought I lost this recipe, I've been meaning to post it for ages! Anything that makes me feel like I'm eating like a "civilian", despite the diabetes, is a plus in my book. The original recipe, which was from the Santa Fe New Mexican, had 1 tbs. of molasses in it - I leave it out, but you could use it if you wish. Hope you enjoy this!

3 cups (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3 garlic cloves, minced
6 scallions, chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup Splenda sugar substitute
1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups water
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 chipotle chiles in adobo, minced
1 tablespoon molasses (optional)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 tablespoon liquid smoke

Directions

1
Saute garlic and scallions in olive oil until just beginning to brown.
2
Stir in Splenda, salt, mustard, paprika, chili powder, water, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, chipotle chilies, and molasses, if using.
3
Simmer for 10 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally.

My husband loved this--he was so excited to have "real" BBQ'd chicken again. I can't say I'm crazy about the artificial sugar, but I'm crazy about my man and will do what I can to please his palate!

Wonderful. I made for my DH and he loved it. I did add 2 Tsp of Habanero Sauce, cause he likes it hot and spicy. He has eaten it on pulled pork and chicken and it was great on both. The BEST lowcarb BBQ sauce he has ever had. Thanks for posting!

EXCELLENT! This sauce has wonderful depth in flavors. I added the molasses, as I thought the Splenda was a little strong tasting. We had this on chicken legs on the grill and it was fantastic. I must say I think I like this way better than any store bought sauce. Thank you very much for this recipe!!
