  1. Finely chop 1 medium yellow onion. Sauté the onion in 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until softened and translucent (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Add 1 cup of ketchup, 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional) to the pot with the sautéed onions.
  3. Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly and developed a rich aroma.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before tasting and adjusting seasonings as needed. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
