Thick-and-Robust Barbecue Sauce
The first nationally branded barbecue sauces were likely based on a Kansas City-style sauce like this one--thick, tomatoey,and sweet,with just a hint of hot.
How to Make It
Step 1
Stir together all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. reduce heat; simmer, stirring occasionally, 40 minutes.
Step 2
Divide sauce into separate containers for basting and serving at the table. (Basting brushes used on raw food should not be dipped into table sauce.) Use as a basting sauce during the last 10 minutes of cooking for steak, pork, burgers, or chicken. Discard any remaining basting sauce, and refrigerate leftover table sauce.

This was the first time I made a BBQ sauce from scratch. It turned out excellently! I would definitely make it again. It is appropriate for both special occasions and everyday mealtime. I was very pleased with the results. I did, however, add 2T of brown sugar instead of the 1T. Make sure that you simmer it until it the sauce becomes thick. I served the BBQ sauce on steak, and had a side of mashed potatoes. My family loved it! Thank you.
