By Sanjay R M Gupta
You have two options. You can either buy a bottle of bbq sauce
or make your own, using your secret recipe. Now if you want to
make bbq sauce and you do not have a recipe, then you can use
our recipe as a starting point and then review your options to
improve upon it and create a better sauce.
Making your own sauce, allows you to control the ingredients
and make the sauce you want. You can choose to make the sauce
using tomato, vinegar or mustard as the primary ingredient. After
you make your first sauce, you can have fun and change the ingredients
to change the taste of the sauce, creating a new sauce.
There are a number of ways to use BBQ sauce when cooking your
meals, as a bbq sauce can be used before, during and after the
cooking process. As a tip, you need to avoid using too much sauce
containing tomatoes or sugar while cooking. These ingredients
burn easily and ruin the taste of meat.
Making Your First Sauce With White Vinegar
A basic barbecue sauce recipe should have some white vinegar
with molasses and mixed in a saucepan over medium heat. You can
change the taste of the sauce by replacing vinegar with cider.
Ketchup can be added to the mix, just after it is taken from
the fire. To improve the taste of your sauce, you may include
one or two tablespoons of spicy yellow mustard. This gives your
sauce a bit of a kick.
Sweeten The Sauce With Brown Sugar
One option is to sweeten the sauce by adding a little brown sugar
or honey. Alternatively, if you want a spicier sauce, chop some
red chili pepper or jalapenos. Another option is to create a fruity
flavor by adding mangoes, apples or strawberries. You may look
at using different options each time you make the sauce, to see
which one you like best.
The traditional Kansas City barbecue sauce is thick and enhances
the taste of meat when added to pork ribs. The preparation will
take about ten minutes and the cooking takes about half an hour
when using this recipe.
Preparing To Make A Kansas City Barbecue Sauce
You will need one and a quarter cups of ketchup with a cup of
water. You also need a tablespoon each of garlic powder, onion
powder and pepper. Two tablespoons molasses, one third of a cup
of cider and a quarter cup of dark brown sugar for this recipe.
Prepare a teaspoon each of celery, salt and allspice. This is
an easy recipe and a good recipe to start practicing, to make
a delicious barbecue sauce.
Cooking It All In A Saucepan
Your next step is to combine all these ingredients in a saucepan
and heat over a medium flame. Stir continuously for five to ten
minutes, then reduce the heat. Let the sauce simmer for about
twenty minutes.
At this point, it should have a thick consistency. Remove it
from the heat and let it cool, then store in an airtight container
in the refrigerator. For a richer sauce, use tomato paste instead
of ketchup.
Allow Time For The Flavours To Blend Together
Make sure that your guests enjoy the sauce, by making it a few
days before serving. This allows time for the flavors to blend
together well. It also allows you to make changes if the bbq sauce
is not perfect.
Many barbecue sauces in the U.S. States of North and South Carolina
include vinegar. The vinegar is a good complement to grilled or
smoked meat, as it penetrates deep into the food, giving a sharp
and sour taste.
The advantage of using vinegar is that it tenderizes the meat,
making it easier to pull off the bone. As with any sauce, it is
best if you do this in advance, to allow the flavors to mix and
create a delicious bbq sauce.
