Homemade BBQ Sauce
Homemade BBQ Sauce - this homemade bbq sauce recipe is sweet and smokey and perfect for so many recipes (like ribs, bbq chicken, etc)!
Ingredients
- 2 cups ketchup*
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup coconut sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespooon worstershire
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- optional 1-2 teaspoons molasses
Instructions
- Combine ingredients in a small/medium saucepan. Stir to combine.
- Place on stove and bring to a simmer. Let simmer a bit to help thicken and let flavors meld together, about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool.
- Use in your favorite recipe (we love these Oven Baked Ribs, these Smoked Baby Back Ribs and this Crockpot BBQ Chicken).
Notes
- Ketchup: I used Primal Kitchen's ketchup that is made with super clean ingredients and no added sugar. If you use a different ketchup that is sweeter you might not need the molasses so be sure and taste before adding.
- Smokey: if you want it even smokier I would recommend adding additional liquid smoke 1/4 teaspoon at a time until you have reached your desired level.
- Paleo: if you want this to be paleo simply use the Primal Kitchen ketchup and skip the molasses.
- Storage: store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
