My Grandma makes the most amazing Barbecue sauce ever. This is her recipe for the barbecue sauce I grew up with. It is a little sweet, a little spicy and has just the right zip. It is good on almost anything. Fair warning, you may need to double the recipe as it is delicious and does not make a ton.
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp. butter
1 medium Vidalia onion finely minced
1/2 cup celery finely minced
2 Tbsp. vinegar
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
1 cup ketchup
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 cup hot water
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. red pepper (red pepper flakes also work)
1/8 tsp. black pepper
Directions:
Melt butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Add onions and celery and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients, excepting salt and peppers. Simmer on low heat for about 30 minutes. Add salt and peppers for the last 5 minutes of cooking. If the sauce is too thick, add water until desired consistency is achieved. Can add more red or black pepper to taste if like sauce spicier.
Serving Suggestions:
