Description

This savory sauce combines the tang of tomatoes and vinegar with the deep sweetness of molasses and a kick of Tabasco. Aromatics like onion, garlic, and celery are simmered with warm spices including clove and allspice for a complex flavor profile. Ideal for basting meats or serving as a dipping sauce, it offers a rich, well-seasoned complement to grilled dishes.

  5. Process through a food processor if desired.
