Dad Guy's Kick@ss BBQ Sauce

Chuck's Ghost Pepper BBQ Sauce

1¾ c. dark brown sugar (packed)

2 c. ketchup

1 c. water

¾ c. cider vinegar

1 8 oz. can tomato sauce

1 6 oz. can tomato paste

1 c. dark corn syrup

1 c. molasses

2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

1 Tbsp. garlic pepper

1 Tbsp. Liquid Smoke flavoring

1 Tbsp. prepared mustard

1 tsp. onion salt

1 tsp. celery salt

1 tsp. turmeric

1 tsp. coriander

1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. smoked (or spicy) paprika

1 jalapeño, finely chopped

1 to 2 ghost peppers, finely chopped (you can leave this out if you don’t like hot & spicy BBQ sauce, but if you do you're really missing out!)

• In a large sauce pan (or small stock pot) combine all ingredients.
• Bring to a boil; reduce heat; simmer uncovered for 15 to 45 minutes (the longer it simmers, the more the flavors will blend).
• Remove from heat; cool before serving.

 The quantities in this recipe will create a BBQ sauce that serves approximately 60.
