It's worth it to make a big batch of barbecue sauce. Freeze it in small or large containers to give quick flavor to chicken anytime.

Yield Makes 5 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small white onion, diced small
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
2 teaspoons ground mustard
1 can (28 ounces) tomato sauce
1/4 cup unsulfured molasses
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add onion and cook until completely soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
  • Add tomato paste and mustard; cook, stirring constantly, until paste turns a brick-red color, about 5 minutes. Add 2 cups water, tomato sauce, molasses, Worcestershire, vinegar, salt, and pepper and stir until smooth.
  • Bring to a simmer; reduce heat to low and partially cover. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 2 hours (thin with water if sauce becomes too thick). Season to taste with vinegar, salt, and pepper. Let cool completely before using.

I've tried this sauce on chicken, pork, and beef and it was delicious on all of them. The flavors are well-balanced and the smokiness is just right. I'll definitely be making this again.
