I am a Southern girl, and a staple in any southern meal must include BBQ sauce. Generally, the hubby and I prefer either Texas or St. Louis style, just in case you were wondering. When we married, my mother-in-law passed down their family BBQ sauce recipe to me. After much Food Network inspiration, I was motivated to perfect the recipe. Here's what we've cooked up:
1/3 cup ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 Tbs butter, melted
2 Tbs apple cider vinegar
1 Tbs lemon juice
1/2 shot Jack Daniels (or a whole!)
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp cilantro
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp ground mustard
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
Tabasco, to taste
combine all ingredients and cook over low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Higher heat (temporarily) will help thicken.
Goes great with any grilling meat and BBQ rub.
