How to Make Lbj Ranch Bbq Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, and simmer gently for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before straining through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any solids (optional, but recommended for a smoother sauce).
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
