How to Make Hot And Spicy Bbq Sauce

  1. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, onion, garlic, smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly, stirring occasionally.
  4. Remove from heat and carefully pour the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer to remove the onion and garlic.
  5. Return the strained sauce to the saucepan and stir in the black pepper. Adjust seasonings (hot sauce, salt, pepper, brown sugar) to your preferred taste.
  6. Let the sauce cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. The flavor will deepen even more if you refrigerate overnight.
