SPRING HILL RANCH CENTRAL TEXAS BARBECUE SAUCE



Spring Hill Ranch Central Texas Barbecue Sauce image

If you spend much time in Texas, you will no doubt note that there is a great BBQ shack every quarter mile or so along the wonderful intra-state Texas highways. Of the many sauces around the state, this one is from the Hill Country of central Texas where beef and lamb are kings of the slow-smoking barbecue pit. Influenced by the hearty German pioneers of the area, this is a sweet, very savory tomato-based sauce. It adds a wonderful complexity to barbecued beef brisket and beef ribs and even lamb shanks. The sauce keeps well covered and refrigerated for at least a week.

SPRING HILL RANCH'S HOUSE BARBECUE SAUCE



Spring Hill Ranch's House Barbecue Sauce image

We found a barbecue sauce recipe said to be over 165 years old. After adjusting it with modern-day ingredients and just a little for our own tastes, we decided it was the best all-around sauce we've ever had and that it was more than worthy of the Spring Hill Ranch House Barbecue Sauce moniker. Visitors and summer residents here in the canyon often ask us to make a few quarts of it to take home for their friends. We have always held the recipe to be a secret, though, so don't tell anyone where you got it! Great on beef, chicken, pork, tractor tires, you name it!

2 tablespoon(s) lard (if you absolutely must, substitute canola or vegetable oil)
1/2 cup(s) diced yellow or white onion

1 cup(s) ketchup
1/4 cup(s) worcestersahire sauce
1/4 cup(s) lemon juice

2 tablespoon(s) packed light or dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon(s) (rounded) american yellow mustard

SPRING HILL RANCH'S NEW MEXICO RED CHILE SAUCE

Provided by Wiley P

Categories     Other Sauces

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 Tbsp lard (or vegetable or canola oil or butter if you must!)
1/2 medium white or red onion, finely diced
2 clove garlic, minced
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/2 c chimayo red chili powder (or any new mexico red chili powder) (mild, medium or hot - your choice) (or a 13-ounce container of frozen red chile puree)
2 c chicken broth (beef broth may be substituted)
1 1/2 tsp oregano (mexican if you have it)
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground cumin (optional, but needed for authenticity)
good water for thinning (if needed)

Steps:

  • 1. In a heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat, heat the lard until it is shimmering but not yet smoking. Sauté the onion until it has softened and become translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until it is nice and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the flour. Stir gently but constantly until the roux reaches a medium brown ("peanut butter") color, about 2 minutes. Add the chile powder or chiles, garlic, chicken broth, oregano, salt and cumin (if using). Simmer, stirring constantly until the sauce has thickened. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon. Add a little water if needed for proper consistency. Blend or process if desired for a smoother texture.
  • 2. Slather the hot (temperature-wise) sauce over or under your New Mexican or southwestern dishes. Kept in an air tight container, this should stay fresh for at least a week in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • To make a smooth and flavorful sauce, whisk the ingredients together in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a simmer.
  • If you want a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the simmering sauce and cook until thickened.
  • For a smoky flavor, add a chipotle pepper to the sauce.
  • To add a bit of sweetness, add a tablespoon of honey or brown sugar to the sauce.
  • If you like spicy food, add a few drops of hot sauce to the sauce.
  • Serve the sauce with chicken, fish, or shrimp.

Conclusion:

Black jack sauce is a versatile and flavorful sauce that can be used to add a kick to any dish. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a new sauce to try, give black jack a try. You won't be disappointed.
