Ingredients
- 3/4 cup catsup
- 2 Tbsp (veggie) Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup water
- 6 Tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 small bay leaf
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 Tbsp paprika 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp (or more) chili powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp cracked black pepper
- 2 Tbsp whole mustard seeds
- 2 tsp Spice Islands hickory smoked salt
- 2 Tbsp onion powder
Directions
-
Mix together in a small (1-1/2 quart) saucepan:
-
3/4 cup catsup; 2 Tbsp (veggie) Worcestershire sauce; 1/2 cup water; 6 Tbsp red wine vinegar; 1 Tbsp brown sugar; 1 small bay leaf
-
Mix together in a small bowl (blend well):
-
1 tsp dried oregano; 1 Tbsp paprika; 1/2 tsp garlic powder; 1 tsp (or more) chili powder; 1/2 tsp ground cloves; 1 tsp cracked black pepper; 2 Tbsp whole mustard seeds; 2 tsp Spice Islands hickory smoked salt; 2 Tbsp onion powder
-
Add dry ingredients to liquids and mix well. Bring mixture to a boil, then simmer 1 hour over low heat. Covered or not; it splatters if you don’t cover it but if you don’t mind cleaning up your stove the sauce thickens up more if it’s uncovered. (take out the bay leaf!)
