How to Make Spicy Chipotle Barbecue Bbq Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, tomato paste, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cumin, and salt.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  3. Reduce heat to low and continue to simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly and the flavors have melded.
  4. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before tasting and adjusting seasonings as needed. Add more brown sugar for sweetness, apple cider vinegar for tang, or chipotle peppers for extra heat.
  5. Once cooled, transfer the sauce to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy!
