  1. oh dana this was sooo good we had it on chicken tonight but will make it for other types of bbq. i did not change a thing as it was so darn delicious!!! thanks for the great recipe!!!!!!
     
  2. This is so flavorful! Dana, we love it!!! Easy to make, and sure smells good simmering. It is an excellent combination of ingredients... spicy, tangy, just a tiny hint of sweet... just the way I like it!
     
  3. Jeff Hixon (a long-time Recipezaar-er) made it for our Boy Scout troop along with pulled pork. It was fabulous!!! He held back a little on the cayanne & chili, but I could also see it going up to full strength. Thank you so much for posting it.
     
  4. This BBQ sauce is wonderful especially for people who do not like a real sweet BBQ sauce which I do but this was still delicious and my boyfriend just loved it. We used it on grilled ribs and chicken. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe, Dana.
     
  5. Thank you Dana, for another great recipe! We made this for a get-together...they licked the bowl! Had it with burgers, ribs and chicken...great on everything! Followed your recipe exactly!

Tweaks

  1. really good, didn't measure anything and put a splash of good quality maple syrup instead of the sugar.
     
  2. This BBQ sauce is sooo good! I made it lower carb by using Heinz 1 Carb Ketchup and substituted the brown sugar with Stevia in the Raw cup for cup. I'm sure it's wonderful made exactly as the recipe is. I also added a tiny bit (1/2 tsp?) of liquid smoke because it just needed something, but with my substitutions that is to be expected. I basted grilled porksteaks with it. YUM YUM.
     
  3. Yummy at first I thought it would be too much worcestershire but upon reading other reviews descided to try all and I am glad I did. I added a little dry mustard and I always substitute apple cider vinegar for white as white vinegar does bad things to your blood system. I think I like this better than bottled sauce. One time it tasted perfect another too much worstershire. I used to remedy that 1 part sugar, 2 parts vinegar and added to take away some of worstershire taste. Funny sometimes worstershire is fine others too much
     
  4. Wow, what a great sauce. I substituted chili powder for sambal oelek & was possibly a little heavy-handed. The taste was still wonderful. Used as the sauce to cook Recipe #8701 and served with these ribs for a fabulous dinner. Thanks Dana for this keeper.
     
  5. Hmmm...What a pleasant surprise. LoL. I had misplaced a magazine with my all time favourite bbq sauce and was in a desperate search for another recipe. I came across your's and it sounded familiar, but not quite the recipe I misplaced. Lo'and behold! Your recipe was DARN! close (I think my recipe used molasses instead of brown sugar..if I remember right.). The only thing i did differently was instead of ceyenne, I used a couple of dried chipotle peppers. Gave it a bit of smokey flavour and kicked the heat up (we like spicy sauce). I definatly won't lose...I mean misplace this recipe and will use it frequently. I will however probably double the recipe, as I like having the sauce on hand when I need it. Used it on pulled pork butt today. Served on buns. Thanks for saving and making my day :-) LeeAnn
