This is the only barbecue sauce I use for Pulled Pork barbecue. From Jeff Smith's first cookbook, The Frugal Gourmet , 1984 One recipe is enough for about 10 lbs. of meat. It keeps well in a jar in the fridge. If you don't have liquid smoke, try adding some smoked paprika.
Ingredients:
3 cups beef broth (or 3 cups water and 3 beef bouillon cubes)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup prepared yellow mustard
1/4 cup white vinegar (cider will do, also)
1/8 cup liquid smoke
1/2 cup worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon chili powder
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan.
2. Simmer SLOWLY uncovered, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
3. (approx 1 1/2 to 2 hrs.) (Watch it closely because it will burn if your heat is too high).
