A Really Good BBQ Sauce Recipe
Ingredients:
8 ounces Tomato Sauce, organic if you can get it
1 cup Mild Thick & Chunky Salsa, like Taco Bell or On the Border brands
2/3 cup coconut palm sugar
1 Tbsp Honey
1/3 cup Red Wine Vinegar
1-1/2 tsp Hickory Flavored Liquid Smoke
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 tsp Cayenne Powder
1/8 tsp Chili Powder
1/8 tsp Ground Mustard
1/8 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1/8 tsp Cumin
Instructions:
1. Add all ingredients to a large saucepan and mix together until smooth.
2. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until boiling. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Remove from heat and allow to cool. The sauce will thicken slightly as it cools.
4. Store leftover sauce in an airtight container or jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
Notes: Feel free to experiment with amounts, and even with ingredients. For example, you can substitute ketchup for the salsa and light brown sugar for the coconut palm sugar; and you can increase the honey to 1/4 cup if you want more sweetness or double the amount of red wine vinegar. I tasted the sauce after I added major ingredients - starting with a smaller amount so I could add a little more if I thought the sauce needed it. I'm not in favor of loading up on sweet flavors or 'too much' vinegar, so the recipe above suited our tastes to a "T". Have fun with this sauce!
