How to Make Bbq Sauce
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/4 cup water.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 6-8 minutes, or until it has thickened to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and let the sauce cool slightly. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. You can add more brown sugar for sweetness, vinegar for tang, or cayenne for heat.
- Transfer the BBQ sauce to a clean jar or container. Allow to cool completely before sealing and refrigerating. Enjoy your homemade BBQ sauce for up to 2 months.
