This is the BEST tasting BBQ sauce I have ever had, and I made it myself. WOW. I am a fan of KC Masterpiece but this has it beat hands down. Make it per the recipe and then if you want to add a little more heat, do it later. I made it per the recipe, cooked it for about three hours, let it cool and then put it in the refrigerator. The next day I sampled it and I was like the cartoon dog that got the bone. Went up in the air about two feet and then slowly came back down to earth. It is THAT good. When it cooled down before putting it in the frig, I put it back into the empty ketchup bottle and that's what I store it in. You have just got to try it.

BBQ Sauce
Ingredients
- 2 quarts Heinz ketchup, and
- 1 cup Heinz ketchup
- 3 (6 ounce) cans Heinz tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 4 1/2 teaspoons liquid smoke
- 1/4 cup mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 3/4 cup molasses
- 1 tablespoon chicken base
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1/3 cup garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons granulated garlic
- 1 tablespoon oregano
- 3 teaspoons celery seeds
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon sage
- 4 bay leaves (remove after cooking)
- 2 pinches crushed red pepper flakes
- 4 tablespoons granulated onion
Directions
METHOD - combine ingredients.
- Cook on low heat (in a nonstick pan), COVERED, for a couple of hours.
- Stir occasionally.
- This part of the recipe has a lot of flavor and just a little bit of heat. It is fine for those of you that cannot handle the heat.
- Add more Crushed Red Pepper for more heat.
- For more of a honey flavor add 1/2 CP honey.
- You can add these ingredients after the sauce has been cooked. I would cook up the sauce as is then adjust for heat and or honey flavor.
- On a side note If you want this to be truly vegetarian, replace the chicken base with Worcestershire sauce. Use an 1/8 of a cup of Worcestershire sauce total.
- Cool in the refrigerator over night.
Enjoy
