Dad's BBQ Sauce

Submitted by racrgal

"This sauce was my departed FIL's. He was quite proud of his smoked pork. It was a day long process cooking the meat while this sauce simmered inside. He would shred the pork, place on a burger bun, drizzle with this sauce, plop on some coleslaw (Mayo base) put the lid on the bun, then wait for the compliments. They were never in short supply!"

Yum! This was so easy to put together, I made half the batch and used a small amount of cayenne pepper because Little Miss (DD) can't eat spicy foods. We used it to dip our chips into the sauce. I have jarred the left overs. Thank you racrgal
