Well every one shares so much here and i copy so figured Id share a sauce I came up with. Really not sure when I started but Believe i was about 16. I loved to make my own things way back them even. And over the years I have tweaked it. Constantly trying others but always coming back to this basic recipe. every one always compliments on it. But really never thought about sharing it. Although I have done it when asked many times. So here goes if you like please comment honestly. My skins tough and Id like to know if its just friends and family being nice or is really as good as they say. Most times I even make my own Ketchup recipe as Kind of feels like stealing using store bought. LOL But its quicker and easier.
Vipers Not so secret BBQ recipe!
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/2 cup apple cider (Or apple juice)
2 1/2 tablespoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons Kosher salt (or any uniodized salt.)
2 teaspoons black Butcher pepper
2 teaspoons Granulated Garlic
2 teaspoons Onion Powder (not Salt)
2 dashes Red hot Brand pepper sauce( 1/2 -1 teaspoon)
Directions
In a pan add apple cider or juice add paprika,kosher salt,Pepper,garlic,onion powder and stir till well mixed. Then add cider or juice,Red hot and stir till well mixed. Add ketchup and keep stirring to every thing is blended well. Bring to boil stirring often .
This will fill a large ketchup bottle Approximately.. Cut back on the brown sugar to make it less sweet, and the red hot to soften the pepper bite. I recommend adding red hot after done mixing to taste. Black pepper is just fine Believe me.
