Traditional American BBQ Sauce
List of Ingredients
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion -- chopped
2 cloves garlic -- minced
1 1/4 cups catsup
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Recipe
Heat the oil in a medium saucepan and cook the onion and garlic,
gently for 10 minutes. Add the catsup, vinegar, Worcestershire, brown
sugar, chili powder, and cayenne, and mix well. Let simmer for about
20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Makes
about 2-1/2 cups
This sauce has a nice balance of sweet, tart, and spice. Because the
sauce contains sugar, it burns easily, and is best brushed on food
just during the last 5 or 10 minutes of cooking. Pass the remaining
sauce around the table.
