Homemade Barbecue Sauce
May 30, 2019
Jump to recipeIf you are looking for a sweet and simple barbecue sauce recipe, then this Homemade Barbecue sauce is for you!
I really enjoy a thick and sweet barbecue sauce. It tastes so good and goes with anything! Ribs, hamburgers, meatloaf, hot dogs. Anything!
I love when you are eating meat with that smoky flavor and then pour a sweet, spicy sauce on top. It brings such a balance and is like the cherry on top!
The first time I made this recipe, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I began making it, then adjusting the measurements as I went on. I asked my husband to try it and he LOVES it! He said he definitely prefers it over store bought and I am so happy with the outcome of this recipe.
I also have a Easy Dry Rib Rub and Oven Baked Barbecue Ribs recipe if you want to check those out too!
I really hope you enjoy this! So, try this out and don’t forget to tag me on Instagram or Facebook. I would love to see your creation!
