Of course, every good Texan will tell you that good BBQ doesn’t need sauce. That’s true. But unless you’re an expert pitmaster, chances are your meat could use a little sauce. Even if you are an expert pitmaster, it’s nice to have the option of a good barbecue sauce.
After a few attempts at homemade BBQ sauce, I think I’ve finally perfected my recipe. I say my recipe because everyone likes their sauce a little bit different, but this is pretty near perfect for me.
This delicious Texas-style barbecue sauce is the perfect mixture of spicy, sweet and smoky. And I love that it’s made with real vegetables, no ketchup (like many BBQ sauce recipes are) and no refined sugar, except for the little in the Worcestershire sauce. And it definitely doesn’t have some of the questionable ingredients in store-bought sauces. While there is still some sugar and sweetness from molasses, I like to think this BBQ sauce is a better choice (and definitely tastes better!) than most store-bought sauces. It’s also super simple to make.
