Tennessee Mop Sauce
Source of Recipe
BBQ USA
List of Ingredients
2 lemons
1 quart distilled water
1/3 cup ketchup
1/2 cup sweet paprika
3 tablespoons coarse salt (kosher or sea)
2 tablespoons fresh ground black pepper
1 to 2 tbl. cayenne pepper Recipe
Squeeze the lemons through your fingers into a large nonreactive bowl or pot, catching the seeds in your fingers. Add the lemon rinds and the vinegar, ketchup, paprika, salt, black pepper and cayenne, and stir until the salt dissolves. The mop will keep for several days, covered, in the fridge, but remov the lemon rinds after about 4 hours or they'll make the mop bitter. Makes 5 cups.
This sauce should be used as a mop for ribs, pork shoulders, briskets and chickens/ When making pulled pork, you can use the mop as a sauce for the meat. Makes enough mop sauce for 8-10 pounds of meat. Figure on one cup of mop per 2 lb. of meat.
