Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Yellow mustard
- 0.5 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 0.33 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (e.g., Tabasco or your choice of brand)
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, honey, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and water over medium heat. Stir well to mix all the ingredients together.
Add the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and hot sauce to the saucepan. Stir to evenly distribute the spices.
Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer over medium heat while stirring occasionally. Once it starts to bubble slightly, reduce the heat to low.
Let the sauce simmer uncovered on low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking or burning. This will help meld the flavors and slightly thicken the sauce.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. For more tang, add a splash of apple cider vinegar. For extra sweetness, add a touch of honey or brown sugar.
Once the sauce has reached your desired consistency and flavor, remove it from the heat.
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before transferring it to an airtight container or jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Brush the sauce onto grilled or smoked meats during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking for a sticky glaze, or use it as a dipping sauce!
