Red barbecue sauce
“Try these three sure-fire hits, designed to be splashed generously over your mixed grills”
- 1 cup tomato sauce or tomato paste
- ½ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 to 2 tbsp English mustard or cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp sea salt
I'd like to share some secrets I discovered while in the United States researching regional cuisines. While in the wild west, I learnt the art of barbecue saucing.
Method
Simply combine all the ingredients into a small, heavy-based pot and simmer on a medium to low heat for at least 10 minutes.
This removes the rawness of the combined flavours. Preferably, make them the day before the big barbie.
The sauce will refrigerate well in an airtight jar.
