    BARBEQUE SAUCE

    This is a simple, yet versatile barbeque sauce. You can marinade things in it, cook things in it, dip things in it or just use it as a sauce.

    INGREDIENTS

    2 tablespoons of butter
    1 tablespoon of sugar
    2 tablespoons of brown sauce
    2 drops of Tabasco chilli pepper sauce
    3 tablespoons of tomato ketchup
    1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce

    METHOD

    Put the butter and sugar into a saucepan on a low heat. Melt the butter and sugar. Stir frequently to stop it sticking.

    Remove the pan from the heat.

    Add all of the other ingredients. Mix thoroughly.

    ADDITIONS & ALTERNATIVES

    Add 1 tablespoon of mushroom ketchup at the same time as the other sauces. Mushroom ketchup is a runny brown liquid, obviously made from mushrooms. It’s available in the “better” supermarkets.

    TIPS
    This will keep in the fridge for 48 hours.

  • Mother has an amazing bbq marinating sauce that she found in the 70's. Thought I would share, I have many fond bbq memories with this sauce.

    Ingredients:

    15g/ 1/2oz butter
    1 small onion very finely chopped
    125ml/ 4fld oz tomato ketchup
    3 tbls red wine (or cider) vinegar
    2 tbls hot pepper sauce
    5 tbls soft brown sugar
    2 tsp mustard
    1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
    salt and pepper

    Method

    Melt the butter in a saucepan and cook the onion until soft taking care not to let it colour.

    Add the rest of the ingredients, stir until combined then bring to the boil.

    Once it has boiled for 30 seconds reduce heat (or move to cooler hob if using electric) and simmer for 5 mins.

    Then its ready to marinate whatever.

    Needless to say that the longer the item is marinating for then the better the flavour, although you can freeze the meat with the marinade and it will (slowly) marinate whilst frozen and through the thawing process.
