Sounds delicious! Here's one my grandma used to make. Thinner than commercial BBQ sauces, but it is also tasty as all get out. If you don't want my recipe clogging up your thread, feel free to holler at me and I'll delete it and start a new thread.


2 Lg Onions 10+ Shakes Tabasco
1/4 C Oil 1/2 C Soy Sauce
1/4 C A. Cider Vinegar 1/4 C Worc Sauce
1/2-3/4 Bottle Ketchup 5+ Handfuls B.Sugar
15 Oz Tomato Sauce 1 Lg Can Diced Tom
Salt & Pepper (to taste) Chili Powder (to taste)
1 1/2 Tbsp Dry Mustard

Saute onions in the oil until transparent. Add vinegar & let simmer. Add Ketchup & Tom. Sauce. Add Salt & Pepper, Mustard, Tabasco, Soy & Worcestershire sauces slowly & let simmer. Add remaining ingredients & simmer until flavors meld together. Enjoy!

Hello FGHawk,
Thanks for the recipe, I will give it a try. Sounds like it would be good on a pulled pork.

I balance the sugar + salt, I also balance the sweet + sour . I would triple the paprika + chile powder in a normal sauce I make. Ill give yours a try . Maybe I need a change.
