Tony Roma's Carolina Honey BBQ Sauce
Serves: 6
Cook Time: 45 minutes
This smoky sauce is perfectly sweetened with honey and molasses, and bites just a bit with pepper sauce. Smother pork spareribs with the sauce, as they do at the restaurant chain. Also use it on baby back ribs and beef spare ribs along with the slow-cooking technique. It's good with chicken, too.
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
| 1 cup | ketchup |
| 1 cup | vinegar |
| 1/2 cup | molasses |
| 1/2 cup | honey |
| 1 teaspoon | liquid smoke |
| 1/2 teaspoon | salt |
| 1/4 teaspoon | garlic powder |
| 1/4 teaspoon | onion powder |
| 1/4 teaspoon | tabasco pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine all of the ingredients for the barbecue sauce in a saucepan over high heat.
Blend the ingredients with a whisk until smooth.
2. When the mixture comes to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer uncovered.
3. In 30 to 45 minutes, when the mixture thickens, remove it from the heat.
If you overcook it and make the sauce too thick, thin it with more vinegar.
