SWEET AND SMOKY BARBEQUE SAUCE



Sweet and Smoky Barbeque Sauce image

Use this toward the end of cooking as you would for any BBQ meat such as pork, ribs, or chicken. I have even used it on beef and hamburgers, sausages, hot dogs, or anything you want, for the most part. I use it on everything from ribs to roasts to hamburgers to hot dogs. Even goes good with a good old classic grilled cheese sandwich. This is a great all-round BBQ sauce. Use right away or cool to room temperature, transfer to jars or containers, and refrigerate. The sauce will keep for several months in the fridge.

  • If you don't have smoked paprika, you can use regular paprika and add a pinch of liquid smoke.
  • Be sure to rub the mixture evenly over the meat so that it can penetrate the fibers and flavor the meat throughout.
  • Let the meat rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking to allow the flavors to develop.
  • Cook the meat over low heat so that it has time to absorb the flavors of the rub.
  • Serve the meat with your favorite BBQ sauce.
