The original Top Secret Recipes' version, like the real thing, tastes pretty good, but is just too sweet for our taste. This version is still sweet, but it's toned down a little. Omit the brown sugar if you want to tone the sweetness down a little more, but don't omit the molasses. It's needed for flavor. Ingredients:
2 cups water |
1 cup white wine or 1 cup red wine |
1 cup cider vinegar |
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste |
1/2 cup molasses |
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed (optional) |
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce, to taste |
2 tablespoons liquid smoke, to taste |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon granulated onion |
1 teaspoon garlic granules |
1 teaspoon sweet paprika |
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1 teaspoon chili powder, to taste |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
2. Whisk until smooth, which will probably take a lot of whisking to get the tomato paste mixed in. Bring the mixture to a boil; reduce heat to low; and simmer, uncovered, for about 50-60 minutes or until the mixture is thick, stirring occasionally.
3. Taste and add more Worcestershire and/or liquid smoke if desired.
4. Cool, then store in a covered container in the refrigerator to allow flavors to develop.
5. This sauce will keep for months in the refrigerator.
6. The recipe doubles or triples very well, so make a BIG batch, and keep it in the fridge all the time.
