Bert's Superb Barbecue Sauce
Servings: 4
Directions
- In a saucepan, mix vinegar, water, sugar, mustard, butter, lemon, onion, and seasonings. Simmer, uncovered, 20 min. Add in worcestershire sauce and catsup, bring back to a boil and its done. (Good Housekeeping CB, 1955)
- NOTE: I don't use cayenne or possibly salt and always double this recipe. Into the double recipe, I add in about 1/4 to 1/3 c. brown sugar. This gives the sauce more of a sweet and sour taste. It is just excellent on Baby Back Ribs, that I simmer in water with a little vinegar, garlic and just a healthy pinch of salt for about 30 min before barbequeing. Through trial and error, I have found which Heinz catchup is thicker and makes a "clingier" sauce.
