Smokey-Sweet Barbecue Sauce

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) and Z3 (ZReboot) recipe.

This Smokey-Sweet Barbecue Sauce is a great addition to your recipe collection. This can be made spicier with the addition of cayenne. I kept mine mild and spiced it up for my husband.

Servings: Makes a little over a cup. For Z2 keep your portion to 3 Tbl or less. For (ZReboot) your portion is unlimited. When you move from ZReduction to ZReboot you can keep using this sauce… you just change the meat you’re using it on!

Ingredients: 

• 8 oz of tomato sauce with no sugar (Hunts is one brand)
• 2 Tbl of Worcestershire
• 2 Tbl of vinegar. Apple cider vinegar is one choice, or I also use champagne vinegar.
• 2 tsp of liquid smoke. Get a good brand. They make organic now
• 1 tsp of salt. I used coarse-grain kosher. Sea salt is even better.
• 1 tsp of minced garlic. Jar garlic will work.
• Liquid sweetener. I used 11 drops of SweetLeaf® Water Drops™. Just put some in and taste it. You can always add more. I started with six drops and ended up at 11.
• ¼ tsp of cayenne (or to taste. You could also use hot sauce with no sugar.)

Instructions: 

Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl or small saucepan. Stir it all together and you are ready to go!

Do not limit yourself to the grill. This would be great on a pork roast. Just spread some across the top when it’s 15 minutes from done and it will start to soak in but not dry out. I’m just here to inspire you.
Enjoy!

Cheers,
