Recipe Ingredients:

- 1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, (optional)
How To Make Bbq Sauce Recipe?
- Combine ingredients: Whisk together all ingredients in a small bowl until well combined.
- Brush sauce on meat: Apply the sauce to meat during the last 5 to 10 minutes of grilling or roasting for the best flavor.
Recipe Tips:
- Use quality ketchup: A good-quality ketchup makes a big difference in flavor. Avoid overly sweet or artificial-tasting brands for the best results.
- Adjust spice to taste: If you like a milder sauce, use less cayenne. For extra heat, add a pinch more or try smoked paprika for depth.
- Let it sit for better flavor: If possible, let the sauce rest for 10–15 minutes before using. This helps the flavors blend beautifully.
- Brush it on at the right time: Apply the sauce during the last 5–10 minutes of cooking to prevent burning but still get that delicious caramelized glaze.
- Store leftovers properly: Keep any extra sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Stir before using again!
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Let the leftover BBQ sauce cool to room temperature. Then, transfer it to an airtight container or a clean glass jar and store it in the fridge for up to 1 week. Stir before using.
- Freeze: Pour the cooled BBQ sauce into a freezer-safe container, leaving some space for expansion. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- Reheat: Place the sauce in a microwave-safe bowl, cover lightly, and heat in 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until warm.
