My cousins' grandfather was a wonderful man and excellent cook. He had a cafe in Alabama. This is his recipe for barbecue sauce. I entered this in a barbcue sauce recipe contest held by the Birmingham Post Herald many years ago. I didn't win first place, but the sauce was chosen as one of the sample selections. One of the advantages of this sauce is that it contains no added sugar (except in the catsup), so the sugar doesn't burn on the meat. Ingredients:
1 quart catsup |
1 cup cider vinegar |
1 cup mustard |
1/2 cup worcestershire sauce |
1 ounce tabasco sauce or 1 ounce pepper sauce |
3 bay leaves |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
salt |
pepper |
1 tablespoon paprika |
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine |
1 medium onion, chopped |
3 garlic cloves, chopped |
1 cup water |
Directions:
1. Mix all the ingredients in large pot and heat until well mixed. 2. Store in the refrigerator. |
