“This is a North Carolina-style BBQ sauce that I have used for years. It's great on any meat. Lots of vinegar - that's the North Carolina way! Be careful though, this one's spicy.” - by JIMBOSKI

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups cider vinegar
10 tablespoons ketchup
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon white sugar
1/2 cup water
