Notes

  • Don't skip any of the ingredients ~ The combination of all the ingredients perfectly balances the tart, sweet, sour, and salty flavors of the barbecue sauce. Don't leave any out.
  • Simmer the bbq sauce ~ Let the sauce simmer for the full 10 minutes. This step helps thicken the sauce to the ideal consistency.
