How to Make Sugar Shack Barbecue Sauce
- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, molasses, apple cider vinegar, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.
- Reduce heat to low, and simmer gently for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Remove from heat and let the sauce cool completely to room temperature.
- Carefully transfer the cooled sauce to a blender or food processor. Secure the lid and blend until completely smooth.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more brown sugar for sweetness, apple cider vinegar for tang, or smoked paprika for smokiness.
- Pour the sauce into an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. The sauce will thicken further as it chills. Enjoy your homemade BBQ sauce for up to one month!
