9 times out of 10 I use a bbq sauce, I’m making it. My basic bbq sauce base is ketchup, brown sugar, cider vinegar, Worcestershire. I’ll add or subtract from there depending on what I’m cooking. I’ll add things like molasses, cane syrup, honey, lemon juice, apple juice, any type of fruit jelly, etc. everything changes depending on the mood I’m in: “regular”, Carolina vinegar, mustard, sweet, bold, fruity, etc.

A fellow on a BBQ board said he worked for years to make a perfect sauce recipe. It had dozens of ingredients, so no one would bother to try to make it.

He then distilled it down to the essentials, 5 main ingredients, and it took off like wildfire. I usually make a double batch and keep it on hand in squirt bottles.

No. 5 Sauce

1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon rub

Simmer to marry the flavors and thicken as desired.

Folks will often add hot sauce, different chili powders, meat drippings, mustard, molasses, etc. to suit their taste.

Sorry I don’t have any measurements. I just wing it each time I cook.

I'm sitting here trying to figure out why you are getting downvoted. This board is weird sometimes

1 stick butter
1/2 onion, chopped
1.5 cup ketchup
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
1/2 of one lemon, juiced

Melt butter in saucepan and sautee onions until translucent. Add all the other ingredients and simmer for 5 minutes.

Sometimes I’ll add some chipotles in adobo for something different.

I made this all the time, it's Aaron Franklins recipie.

1 3/4 cups ketchup
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/4 tablespoons plus 11/2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons plus 11/2 teaspoons
Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon chile powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse black pepper


Notes
Combine all of the ingredients in a saucepan and warm gently over medium heat, stirring occasionally. There is no need to bring the mixture to a boil, as the idea is just to warm it enough to melt and integrate the ingredients. Once you have done that, remove from the heat and let cool. Transfer to a jar, bottle, squeeze bottle, or however you want to store it. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

That’s a lot of honey and brown sugar with an unnecessary boost of ketchup for a mustard-based sauce.

There are a couple of posters who downvote everything I say because I hurt their feelings one time. But yeah, there are more downvotes than normal on this post. I’ll probably cry later tonight, but at least I’ll have my good bbq sauce to make me feel better.

I make the Myron Mixon sauce, but don't put as much sweet stuff in it. (I think last couple of times I made it, I left out the brown sugar, or used a lot less.)

thought so as well but was pleasantly surprised at how balanced it was . I was talking to my wife tonight how I thought it would be sweeter with the amount of sugars. It’s sweet but really balances with the mustard and vinegar. It’s a sweeter mustard sauce than I normally makes but it’s really good in my opinion.

What? Must be a copy/paste translate bug in there.

No, it's based on a large scale recipe, I just ballpark the odd measurements.

I believe the recipe is trying to say 1 and 1/2 teaspoons. Or 1.5 teaspoons. The way it was written, 11/2, looks like eleven out of two. I think a joke was missed.

AND


Mixed together in a 1:1 or a 2:1.5 ratio depending on what it's going on...

I don't make homemade mustard, ketchup, or mayonnaise either...

It's because the original recipe is intended to make gallons of sauce. So if you want to scale it down for home use, but keep proper proportions, you end up with wacky measurements.
