Description
Create a sweet, tangy, and smoky condiment perfect for glazing chicken, turkey, or vegetables. This professional-grade BBQ sauce achieves a perfect balance of acidity and deep sweetness, caramelizing beautifully on the grill without the use of artificial preservatives or high-fructose corn syrup.
Ingredients
1.5 cups ketchup
0.5 cup raw honey
0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Whisk the ketchup, honey, vinegar, molasses, and spices together in a medium stainless steel saucepan until fully combined.
Heat the mixture over medium-low heat until it reaches a gentle, consistent bubble.
Maintain a low simmer for 10 to 12 minutes while stirring frequently to prevent scorching the sugars.
Remove the pan from the heat once the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
Notes
Monitor the heat closely as the high sugar content can cause the sauce to burn quickly if left unattended. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
