I've never made my own BBQ sauce, or even looked up how to; but I think, while making my fugly meatloaf last night, I might have stumbled upon something good. I will try this weekend.

TigerDik BBQ
Ketchup - 2 cups
Brown Sugar/syrup - 2/3 cups
Mustard - 2 tbsp
Lemon Juice - 2 tbsp
Worcestershire Sauce - 2-4 tbsp
A1 (spicy) Sauce - 2-4 Tbsp

I haven't tried the Worcestershire and A1 mixed with the other ingredients, but I can imagine this would be good.

Perhaps add in some chopped bell peppers if you dont have spicy A1?

Advice or tips are appreciated. I would love to try different recipes this weekend on different meats.

TIA

No amounts to give you as I don't measure the stuff.

Diced onion and garlic sauteed in butter or margarine until translucent, One sliced lemon. L&P sauce, tomato paste, cider vinegar, seasonings like Tonys or SYM all cooked down for about thirty minutes, then dry sherry added to it. I have had friends eat that stuff alone out of the pot.

Should I substitute Worcestershire for the apple cider vinegar? or just add the cider in with it all?

I'm seriously wanting to try different methods of bbq this weekend.

I'll sometimes whip something together along these lines:

Dice a small onion and sauté in a small sauce pan for a couple minutes. Then add a can of tomato sauce and a dash of Worcestershire sauce. Add a few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar (to taste. I like mine thinner and tangy-er). Add a tablespoon or three of mustard. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and a tiny bit of brown sugar. I'll also add a couple shakes of red pepper flakes and cayenne for a hint of spice

Bring to a slight simmer, then back off the heat.

Cut back on the L&P pour in just enough to give the margarine/butter a "muddy" appearnce to it.

Another thing in my bag is a homemade mango chutney for use on pork loins and other pork portions. I got the inspiration from tasting some of it on St Croix one day, the first words out of my mouth were give me some pig.

Here's the recipe for it:

Ville Platte Barbecue Sauce (Jack Miller Clone)

1 cup yellow mustard
1 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups dried chopped onions (8 oz by weight)
5 cups warm water
10 oz bottle Worcestershire sauce
1 cup catsup
6 Tbs tomato paste
3/4 cup chili sauce
6 Tbs sugar
1/4 cup margarine
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp Louisiana hot sauce
1 tsp chili powder

1. Pour warm water over the dried onions in a bowl and allow to rehydrate for 30 minutes.

2. Into a pot of suitable size, put the all of the ingredients, including the onion water, and simmer for 2 hours or more, until the onions are very soft.

3. For basting sauce, take a portion of the sauce and add an equal amount of vegetable oil and heat. Use the top part of this mixture (the oil) for basting on the grill. The thicker sauce on the bottom can be painted on the meat during the last few minutes of cooking or served with the meat as a table sauce.

Yield: 2 quarts

Cooking Times
Total Time: 2 hours and 30 minutes

This looks close to what I'm accustomed to....


I also do a mustard sauce and a white sauce.

These are pretty approximate measurements, not exact. Kind of western NC style, A college buddy of mine made it like this, and I do to this day. Good stuff to mop on.

1 cup of apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup of ketchup
A dash yellow mustard
1/4 cup of brown sugar
2 teaspoons of red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons of onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons of coarse black pepper

I mix this up in a mason jar, and shake it well before using.

Easy to make, and good. No cooking involved in making it.

I'm a fan of the white BBQ sauce on grilled chicken:

1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
Cajun seasoning to taste

Mix together and refrigerate overnight.
