“Starts out sweet, comes back with some heat. You will feel this one on your tongue, not your lips. This recipe started as a simple vinegar based BBQ sauce, but as I got into it I realized I wanted some heat and sweet too. Makes a good marinade with 1/2 the sugar and the addition of 1/3 cup oil.” - by GALLOPSU

"This is way too liquid to be a bbq sauce. It's more of a marinade than anything else. I did manage to make sauce out of it by omitting the water and reducing the cider vinegar to a 1/2 cup. I also re..." See moreduced the chili powder to 2 Tbsp. and the black pepper for the children. I mixed everything in a saucepan over medium heat to get rid of the sugar grit and stirred in a can of tomato paste. Not bad."

"I added the tomato paste and put over heat as well. Wouldn't have been so sauce-like without. I also added a little dab of hot sauce for an extra kick...." See more"
