Tennessee Pit-Barbecue Sauce

This BBQ sauce is fantastic on pork. We grilled pork back ribs and slathered them with sauce for a wonderfully messy, yummy feast!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 c. butter
  • 1 yellow onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 T. dry mustard
  • 1 t. dry mustard
  • 1 t. crushed red pepper flakes
  • 3 T. brown sugar
  • 2 c. ketchup
  • 1/2 c. Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 T. hot pepper sauce such as Tabasco
  • 2 T. molasses
  • 1/4 c. bourbon (optional)
  • 2 T. soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Add onion and garlic, cook stirring, until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add mustard and red pepper flakes, cook 2 minutes.
  4. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer and cook 10 minutes over low to medium heat.
  5. Serve or let cool completely. Store covered in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  6. Before using, gently reheat.
