Basic Barbecue Sauce Mon, 19 July 2004 21:24
Taken from the "Barbecue Bible" by Steven Raichlen.

Basic Barbecue Sauce

3 tbls vegetable oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 green bell pepper, minced
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 cup water (or more if needed)
3 tbls cider vinegar (or more to taste)
3 tbls Worcestershire cauce
2 tbls fresh lemon juice
2 tbls pineapple juice (optional)
1 tsp your favourite hot sauce (or more to taste)
1 tsp liquid smoke, or 2 tbls meat drippings
2 tbls molasses
3 tbls dark brown sugar (or more to taste)
2 tbls prepared mustard
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
salt to taste

Heat oil in large non-reactive saucepan (or pot) over medium heat. Add: Onion, garlic and bell pepper and sauté until soft but not brown, about 4 minutes.

Stir in: ketchup, tomato sauce, water, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, pineapple juice (if using), hot sauce, liquid smoke, molasses, sugar, both mustards and black pepper. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered until thickened, about 15 min. Stir often to prevent scorching.

Remove from heat and taste for seasoning, adding salt and vinegar, hot sauce and sugar as needed.

Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly. Sauce will last in refridge for several weeks.

Options: When finished with the above, the sauce will be thick and lumpy from the veggies in it. You can then puree it in a blender to make the sauce smooth.
