A refinement of my BBQ sauce experiments. You can make hotter by adding more Dave’s Insanity, if you dare!

The result is a rich tomato flavored sauce, slightly sweet and smokey with a little bite.

Ingredients:

• 1 Cup Catsup (remember, no high fructose corn syrup allowed!)
• 1/2 Cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 Cup Soy sauce
• 6 Oz India Pale Ale (or other beer of your choice, I recommend an ale)
• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp cayenne pepper
• 2 tsp dry mustard
• 2 tsp spicy paprika
• 2 tsp Dave’s Insanity (WARNING: Very Hot, don’t use unless you know what you’re doing!)
• 1 tsp salt

Directions:

• Put all ingredients in a medium sauce pot.
• Warm over low heat. Don’t allow to boil, or the sauce will get bitter.
• Allow to warm for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This is so all the solids dissolve into the sauce.
• If sauce is the consistency you want, use/bottle now, if you want it thicker, you can continue to warm it until it reduces more. To make it thinner, add more India Pale Ale.
