Barbecue Sauce
"A TASTY barbecue sauce for pork, chicken or beef. Why purchase the bottled sauce when you can enjoy more flavor! Easy to prepare and the ingredients are normally on a pantry shelf."

We loved it--we used everything the recipe called for. I have leftover pork that I shredded and added this to. After making the sauce I let it all sit for an hour or so to heat through. -
didnt use the onion and celery as I made this to go over the spicy pork steaks that were baked in the oven with the rub. Completed the whole dish nicely. Will make again for other meatsalso. -
What a great recipe for the BBQ season - makes for a wonderful tasting sauce. Was great on chicken and am sure it would be great on ribs too. Made using the optionals and have added it to my summer grilling collection. Thank you for sharing. Made for the Auz/NZ August swap. -
Make sure you use the optional ingredients, as they are an important part of the overall taste of this sauce! We loved it, and I used it on some ribs I was making on the grill! Excellent choice for us and we will be using this often this summer! -
Great sauce. I had to use molasses instead of brown sugar and used balsamic vinegar. Really easy and tasty!

<p>Thanks for taking the time to stop by My Page! I am married to a quiet, but fun loving guy who cleans up the kitchen!! I have grandchildren who I adore. I am retired from being a paralegal and a real estate agent. I have also been a substitute teacher for the elementary grades in the public school system. All of my recipes are the tried and true type. Many of them have come from my 48 years of cooking, my mother's recipe box or other relatives. I like Taste of Home magazine and I am a big fan of foodnetworkTV. I am a southern girl and enjoy comfort foods!!! I am a big cookbook collector and have been for years. I enjoy baking desserts most of all. I also enjoy games on my laptop, growing flowers, lunches with friends, babysitting grandchildren, photography and traveling. Since life is so short I try to count my blessings each day and give to the less fortunate. I had gotten into a rut on what to cook. Therefore, I am so happy I found the Recipezaar site. Pet Peeve: People with a negative attitude. MY RATING SYSTEM: 5 stars - Excellent in taste. May have minor change. 4 stars - Adjustment in ingredients for flavor. 3 stars - Fair, but not sure whether I would repeat. 2 and 1 stars - I do NOT give.
