Evil Genius, Sr.’s Slathering Barbecue Sauce

Rebecca Lindamood

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup Jack Daniels honey Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons Chinese pepper paste Chili Garlic Sauce or Sambal Oelek
  • 4 cloves garlic peeled and minced
  • 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Drop the heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until it has darkened in colour and reduced to be slightly thicker, about 15 minutes. When done, it should coat the back of a spoon and leave a trail when you draw your finger (CAREFULLY!) through it.
  • Use immediately or store in a tightly lidded jar or container for up to two weeks in the refrigerator. This can be frozen for later use.
