Honey BBQ Sauce

Something I've always enjoyed since I was a little boy was the sweet, tangy, and utterly delectable flavor of rich honey BBQ sauce. You can put it on chicken, wings, burgers, ribs, pulled pork sandwiches, French fries...it is utterly amazing on just about anything. Since then I've always come back to this recipe for my "can't go wrong with it" BBQ sauce. Best thing about making this yourself is that you can make it with no High Fructose Corn Syrup. Here are the things you'll need for this recipe.

1 cup ketchup (high fructose free ketchup that is)
1/2 cup yellow mustard
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup Apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp molasses

2 Tbsp chilli powder
2 Tbsp black pepper
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp Cayenne pepper

3 Tbsp honey (I prefer orange blossom or honeysuckle)

Combine the top ingredients into a small sauce pot and stir until mustard is completely mixed. Next add the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly again and simmer on medium low heat for 5 minutes. Add the honey and stir again, cover the pot and let simmer for another 20 minutes. Let it stand for about 10 minutes to cool down. What comes out is a thick, tangy, and rich sauce that his the front of your palette with the sweetness of the molasses and honey and it finished with the spicy kick off the Cayenne and black pepper. An absolutely amazing sauce for anyone wanting a really great BBQ sauce for just about anything. It's sticky, thick, sweet, and delightful. Use this one as you wish. It's easy and yields about a pint of sauce. Just remember that cooking is really not that hard to do. Have fun in the kitchen everyone.
