Spicy Chipotle Barbecue Sauce

This is a spicy, sweet, tangy barbecue sauce that makes the best wing sauce you ever had--and it's low carb! You'll never believe low carb can be this good. Warning: it is REALLY spicy, as most of my recipes are. If you can't handle the heat, cut back on the chipotle powder and hot sauce some, but the heat is what makes it so good.
