I use this often on my outdoor and indoor grill or for broiling, brush this on the last 15-20 minutes of cooking time. Plan ahead this sauce needs to chill for a minimum of 6 hours before using. This will keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
Ingredients:
1 small onion, minced
1 -2 tablespoon fresh minced garlic (or to taste)
2 -3 tablespoons oil (do not use olive oil)
1 1/2 cups chili sauce (store-bought)
3/4 cup light molasses
3/4 cup beer
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon tabasco sauce (or to taste)
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
salt (optional)
Directions:
1. In a heavy sauce sauté onion and garlic in about 2 tablespoons oil until soft (about 3 minutes).
2. Add in all remaining ingredients; mix to combine and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
3. Reduce heat; simmer until the sauce thickens and is reduced to around 2 cups or a little more, stirring occasionally, season with salt if desired (this should take about 20 minutes).
4. Cool completely, cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 6 hours.
