BBQ Sauce

This sauce is thinner than the typical store bought bbq sauces but packs a lot of flavor.
Tangy, sweet and spicy....yuummm!!

1 Small Onion, finely diced
1 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
1/2 C. Tomato Paste
1/4 C. Brown Sugar
1/4 C. Molasses
1/4 C. White Vinegar
1/4 C. Soy Sauce
1/4 C. (real) Maple Syrup
1/4 C. Ketchup
4 tsp. Dijon Mustard
4 tsp. Worcestershire Sauce
4 tsp. Garlic Powder
4 tsp. Onion powder
4 tsp. Seasoned Salt (such as Lawry's)
Approx 1 tsp. of Hot Sauce. Depends on the amount of heat you like.
2 C. Water


In large sauce pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat and add diced onion. Cook until onions start to soften. Add all the remaining ingredients into the pot and using a whisk stir together so as to avoid lumps. Simmer for at least an hour on low heat so sauce will reduce and thicken.
Check seasoning to see if you want more spice. Can adjust and add more hot sauce if needed. When done, remove from stove-top and let cool. Transfer to airtight containers.

Can last a few weeks in an airtight container in the fridge. I have also frozen batches of it for later use since Summer is such a big BBQ time!
