Zubereitung von Carolina Barbecue Sauce
- Combine honey, molasses, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, peppercorns, chiles, and bay leaves in a large stockpot.
- Cook over medium-low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the garlic darkens and the mixture thickens and becomes fragrant.
- Stir in tomato paste and crushed tomatoes. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring frequently to break up the tomatoes.
- Add apple cider vinegar, water, and salt. The sauce should be relatively thin at this stage.
- Simmer the sauce uncovered for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the richer the flavor will be.
- Remove from heat. Set aside half of the sauce for marinating your pork.
- Let the remaining sauce cool slightly.
- Remove any large pieces of garlic or peppercorns.
- Carefully puree the sauce in a blender or food processor until smooth (be cautious when blending hot liquids). Some spices may remain whole for added texture.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. The sauce should have a slightly watery consistency, similar to a brothy tomato soup.
