Yield

🎉 This recipe yields approximately 2 cups of delicious barbecue sauce, perfect for slathering on your favorite meats.


Instructions

  1. Heat the Oil
    Begin by heating the vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. 🌡️ Once the oil is shimmering, add the finely chopped onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent and just beginning to caramelize, about 3 minutes. This step creates a flavorful base for your sauce.

  2. Combine Ingredients
    Stir in the cider vinegar, lemon juice, tomato sauce, water, salt, mustard, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. Make sure to mix everything thoroughly so the flavors meld together beautifully. 🍲

  3. Simmer to Perfection
    Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer gently. Allow it to cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency. This slow simmering process enhances the flavors and creates a rich, luscious sauce. ⏲️

  4. Finish and Serve
    Once the sauce has thickened, remove it from the heat. Let it cool slightly before using it on your favorite grilled or roasted meats. 🥩🍗 The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy the savory, tangy, and slightly sweet flavors that make this sauce a family favorite! 😋


This barbecue sauce is a true gem in our culinary repertoire, guaranteed to transform your meals into unforgettable feasts. Whether you’re hosting a backyard barbecue or enjoying a cozy family dinner, this sauce is your go-to companion for a mouthwatering experience. 🔥🍖 Bon appétit!
