How to Make Molasses Bbq Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the molasses, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly and reduced by about 1/4. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using. For a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to blend it before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
