Smoky Homemade BBQ Sauce: Ultimate Flavor!
Create a rich, smoky homemade BBQ sauce with tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey for ultimate flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup tomato paste
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire
- 2 teaspoons liquid smoke
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey, tomato paste, molasses, Worcestershire, liquid smoke, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
- Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reaches a gentle simmer. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to simmer (uncovered) for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened to your desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. Store any leftover sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
