Canadian_Smoke's "Secret" Dipping Sauce/Mop

[Canadian_Smoke]

I already know that I'll be receiving faaaar more than I give when it comes to helpful tips and information but, I thought that I would share the receipe for my favorite Dipping/Mop Sauce.

Let me start by saying that I certainly didn't invent this on my own, I simply took a receipe from some cookbook and made some modifications to suit my personal tastes.  Over time I ended up with the following:

<b><u>Ingredients</u>:</b>

1 - 8 oz can of Tomato Sauce
1 medium sized onion diced up med fine
1 medium sized clove of garlic minced fine
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup white vinegar
1/3 cup corn syrup
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 tablespoon chili pepper
2 oz bourbon or whisky (I use Jack Daniels)

<b><u>Directions</u>:</b>

1.  Combine all ingredients except the bourbon or whisky into a medium sized sauce pan.

2.  Heat over med to med-high heat stiring regularly until the mixture comes to a boil.

3.  Add the alcohol, reduce the heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes.

If you are going to use it as a mop and a dipping sauce, split the batch into two parts and put the portion to be used for dipping into the fridge.  Reheat this portion prior to serving.

I use mop this sauce onto smoked ribs and finish them on the BBQ for that slightly crispy texture.  I also use it as a dipping sauce for pork and beef tenderloin and on smoked chicken pulled sandwiches.

My wife refers to it as Scott's Hard Sweet and Sour Sauce.......I just call it good and I hope that some of you will too [:)]

I made your sauce for some BB ribs yesterday and my wife loved the
sauce so much I am sure I'll be making it often in future.


                     thanks

Thanks, CS--sounds delicious.  I'm sure Olds will be adding it to the Recipe section of the FAQ board.
