2bleu's Wet Sauce for Ribs and More

Submitted by 2Bleu

"This is a wonderful condiment brushed on ribs or chicken or pork chops during grilling, or dress up a can of baked beans by adding 1/2 cup, and you can also serve it at the table in a squeeze bottle at room temperature. This is our own wet sauce and is great used with Recipe #320535. This sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months which means you can make it in the spring and use it all summer long. Great for gift baskets too! Makes 1/2 gallon (64 oz)."

Great BBQ sauce! Tangy, not too sweet, just the right amount of spice. I made just as directed except that I didn't blend it after cooling. Used on baby back ribs and really loved it - thanks for sharing the recipe!

This is a lovely all around sauce that has a multitude of possibilites for use. I chose for my first recipe to use it on pork chops. I started making the sauce the night b/f and let it simmer on the stove top for about 4+ hours. Then the next day I used it for a basting sauce on the pork chops I was baking in the oven. THis has fabulous all-around taste with just the right amount of sweet/tang. Next up is chicken wings in the crock pot with a splash of the sauce thrown over top. Thanks for sharing this one-of-a-kind recipe that is sure to become a main staple on the kitchen table. Made for PRMR~
