Homemade BBQ Sauce


This recipe tastes a lot like commercial barbecue sauce (better in my opinion) but without a long list of ingredients you can't pronounce. I know this recipe isn't perfect, and certainly there are better cleaner versions, but I'm pretty content to splurge a little bit on my sauce for the two times a month that I have it! 

2 tbsp liquid honey 
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp prepared yellow mustard
2 tbsp tomato paste or tomato ketchup
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
2-3 tbsp onion, chopped very fine
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp dill seed
1/4 tsp dill weed
1/2 tsp paprika
pepper (to taste)
1 dash cayenne pepper (if you like it spicy)
1/4 tsp red chili flakes (less if you don't like it spicy)


Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Add the cayenne pepper and chili flakes last unless you know you like spice. This recipe covers a full rack of ribs, but if you want to make more and store it in the fridge, it stores very well. Omit the garlic and onion until serving if you want to store it for longer than a couple of days, or try garlic powder and onion powder. It won't taste quite as good, but it will store for much longer.
