It is suppose to get up to 90 today. The weather is like a roller coaster for
May. Since it is going to be like
summer, thought I would share homemade barbecue sauce with you to use for your
grilling tonight. Get out the chicken,
pork chops or ribs. It goes great on all
of it.
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 onion
4 cloves of garlic
2 cups ketchup
2/3 cup water
2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons Dijon
mustard
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup brown sugar
4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
Red pepper flakes or cayenne for heat (Start small and
continue to taste and add until you have the heat you desire.)
In a large saucepan heat canola oil over medium heat. Add
chopped onion; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add chopped garlic and cook
for 1 minute. Add ketchup and 2/3 cup water, bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients simmer for 10 minutes, or
until thickened, stirring occasionally.
Add the heat last and keep adding until you have the desired heat you
are looking for. I like a little heat,
but everyone is different. I usually use
about 1/2 tsp. of pepper flakes and that is plenty hot for me.
Let cool and transfer the mixture to a food processor or
blender; puree until smooth. Pour into a mason jar and store in the
refrigerator. It keeps for weeks.
Have a great day, be happy and may God bless you and yours.
