Smokey BBQ Sauce
Smokey BBQ Sauce

 

Smokey BBQ Sauce is a delicious, super simple and beautiful sauce that goes well with anything on the grill. It’s a great BBQ sauce by itself but by adding or changing some of the ingredients you can create a whole new sauce of your own. This sauce gets its smoky flavor from smoked garlic and smoked paprika.

This one also works great as a dipping sauce and it can be served either hot or cold.

The building blocks for most BBQ sauces are ketchup, apple cider vinegar and dark brown sugar. These together are good, but it’s easy to make them into something extra special.

Cooking Directions: Smokey BBQ Sauce 

Mix all the ingredients in a saucepan and simmer for 15 minutes letting everything blend and get happy and the sauce thickens.

Store in the refrigerator or freezer until needed.

Note: If the bacon and onions are too hot when you blend it, it will blow the top off and you will have “Hot” BBQ sauce everywhere. Don’t ask how I know this…

About our Recipes

We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Louisiana, Green Mountain, Sawtooth, Royall, Memphis, Traeger wood pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Pacific Living Outdoor Oven, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.

The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can even do some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.

Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….

Live your Passion and Do What you Love,
