Description

My dad’s magical recipe: sweet, tangy, perfect BBQ sauce. I crave it by the spoonful (but I refrain).

Ingredients

  • 32 ounces, fluid Ketchup
  • 1 Tablespoon Kitchen Bouquet Or Liquid Smoke
  • ⅓ cups Molasses
  • ⅓ cups Sugar
  • ¼ cups Vinegar (whatever You Have On Hand)
  • ¼ cups Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Mustard
  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Salt (or Powder)
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Salt Or Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Accent
  • 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Tabasco Or Hot Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Salt

Preparation

If you don’t have Kitchen Bouquet, substitute additional Worcestershire sauce or an equal amount of Liquid Smoke.

If you don’t have molasses, substitute 1/3 cup honey plus 1/3 cup brown sugar.

The “vinegar” is pretty generic. My dad uses red wine vinegar, I used apple cider.

Taste and adjust to your liking. I know for a fact that I splashed in extra Worcestershire, garlic powder, hot sauce and honey, so make it your own!

Then, mix everything and refrigerate. Go ahead, dump it all in a bowl. Store as you see fit. My dad cans his in mason jars, but I just repurpose the empty ketchup bottle.

This looks similar to Texas-style barbecue sauce. And to that I say Amen! I can’t wait to try it!
