Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Ketchup
- 0.5 cups Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 0.25 cups Honey
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Liquid smoke
- 1 tablespoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cups Water
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Stir well to combine.
Add Dijon mustard, liquid smoke, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly to incorporate all the spices.
Slowly add water while stirring to achieve your preferred consistency.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 20-25 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent sticking and ensure the flavors meld together.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed—for more sweetness, add a bit more honey; for extra smokiness, add a touch more liquid smoke.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly. Transfer to a jar or airtight container.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or use immediately as a topping, marinade, or dipping sauce.
