Description

This Tennessee-style BBQ sauce combines ketchup, molasses, and liquid smoke with a blend of warm spices for a deep, savory flavor. Simmered with onions and garlic, it develops a complex, aromatic profile perfect for grilling. A versatile condiment that can be made in advance and stored for later use.

Directions

  1. In a large, heavy saucepan, melt the butter with the oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the onion and sauté until slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic and sauté for another 2 minutes.
  4. Add all the remaining ingredients, raise the heat, and cook at a full boil for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
  5. Reduce heat, partially cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Sauce may be refrigerated and reheated when needed.
