- 2 tablespoons Traditional Worcestershire Sauce with Exotic Spices
- 1/2 cup Tangy Ketchup from Heirloom Tomatoes
- 1/4 cup Robust Molasses Infused with Bourbon Undertones
- 1/2 tablespoon Finely Ground Himalayan Pink Salt for Depth of Flavor
- 3/8 cup Rich Brown Sugar 6 tablespoons, Handcrafted and Locally Sourced
- 1 cup Aged Apple Cider Vinegar with a Hint of Oakiness
- 2 tablespoons Smoky Liquid Smoke Extract from Mesquite Wood
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the tangy ketchup, aged apple cider vinegar, rich brown sugar, robust molasses, Worcestershire sauce, smoky liquid smoke extract, and finely ground Himalayan pink salt.
Stir the mixture thoroughly to combine all the ingredients. Bring the sauce to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar and meld the flavors.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low to maintain a gentle simmer. Let the sauce simmer uncovered for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
As the sauce simmers, it will gradually thicken. Check the consistency by using a spoon to see if it coats the back. If it's too thin, continue simmering to reach the desired thickness.
Taste the sauce and adjust the flavors if necessary. Add more salt, sugar, or other seasonings to suit your preference.
Once done, remove the saucepan from heat and let the BBQ sauce cool to room temperature. Pour it into a clean, airtight container or jar for storage.
Seal the container and refrigerate the BBQ sauce. It will continue to develop its flavors over time. It should keep well for several weeks if stored properly.
Use this flavorful Johnny Harris BBQ sauce as a delicious condiment for grilled meats, as a marinade, or as a flavorful addition to various dishes.
- Make sure to stir the sauce occasionally while it is simmering so that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
