CT Based Q Sauce

[ArnieM]

I did ribs today and didn't like my in-house choices for commercial sauces.  So, I thought I'd try something new and got something of a surprise in the bargain.

Recipe:
- 3/4 cup CT
- 1/4 cup Heinz ketchup
- 2 TBSP brown sugar
- 1 1/2 TBSP honey
- 1 tsp each Worcestershire sauce and chipotle powder
- 1/2 tsp each granulated garlic, onion powder and dry mustard

Bring to a boil.  That's when the surprise happened.

The 'stuff' instantly thickened up and had a consistency akin to pudding.  I don't know what 'kicked in' to make that happen.

So, I added a TBSP of OO and then kept stirring in chicken broth until it came back to a sauce consistency; didn't have any white wine.

In the end it came out good.  My wife raved over it.  She brushed more of it onto the ribs on her plate.  The cats and I liked it too  :D

These the same ribs you used the road kill on?

[ArnieM]

Yep.

CT has flour in it...     That's what "popped" when it came to a boil.

[classicrockgriller]

So you can make it a thick slather by heating it up?

[ArnieM]

You could spread this stuff with a knife.

I don't think this stuff would qualify as "light and fluffy"  ;D
