Barbecue Sauce for Pork

February 9, 2016 By Jenai

Created by Jenai on February 9, 2016

  • Yield: Between 1 & 2 cups
  • Category: Savory

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Vinegar (I used rice vinegar for a milder flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce (I would halve this)
  • 1 teaspoon Prepared Mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar (or more, to preferred sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 pinch Cayenne (or to preferred level of hotness)
  • 1 Small Clove Garlic, crushed (optional, though I would not omit)
  • 1 pinch Mace (or Nutmeg), optional though recommended
  • 3/4 cup Snyder oyster cocktail sauce or Ketchup (I use Ketchup)
  • Water, up to 1 cup, to desired sauce thickness (I prefer to leave it out)

Method

  • Mix all of the ingredients, and then boil together for a few minutes (I don't bother boiling).
  • Cover meat (pork is suggested) in sauce, leaving some aside for basting.
  • Barbecue, broil, or simmer your choice cut of pork (or other meat), occasionally turning and basting with remaining sauce.
