I grill and barbecue all of the time, but I usually don’t make my own sauce. It is quite easy to do, but I never seem to use the right ingredients to make it tasty. I have done it in the past and it really hasn’t turned out that great. I usually make the sauce too sweet or too tangy. I was messing around in the kitchen the other day and I finally got the perfect sauce. It is thick, tangy, sweet and spicy. I used tomato paste as the base to make the sauce thicker. It is amazing.
Homemade Barbecue Sauce
The first step is to dice the onion and garlic as fine as you can.
Then in a heavy duty sauce pan add the butter and let it melt over medium/high heat. Then add the onions and garlic and saute until soft.
Then add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil and then let simmer for 45 minutes to an hour.
The sauce is thick because we used tomato paste instead of tomato sauce. It is awesome on ribs, pulled pork and chicken. I know what you are thinking. Yeah, it really is that easy.
This sauce makes a lot so you can store it in a steralized jar for around 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

I found this recipe on your site and tried it over the weekend, it's a tasty little recipe I have to say, I have it with some simple grilled chicken done on the Weber :)
Thanks for the recipe.

Glad you enjoyed it Ben. I am going to have a few more in the coming weeks. I am working on a nice mustard sauce.
