Anyone can make a good BBQ sauce. It’s simple…
INGREDIENTS:
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons molasses or for a lighter flavor try honey
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup cold water
1 teaspoon cornstarch
A few shakes of liquid smoke(optional)
DIRECTIONS:
Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and saute the onion until tender and golden brown. Stir in garlic. Mix in Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, molasses, liguid smoke and mustard. Cook and stir 5 minutes, then mix in ketchup, cold water, and cornstarch. Reduce heat to low, and continue cooking 10 minutes, until thickened.

This sauce, a favorite of mine to top nut encrusted fish or chicken, is also excellent on roasted potatoes, veggies, or drop a dollop on a pile of seasoned/buttered pasta.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons tomato paste
2 cups heavy cream
1 bouillon cube, beef, crushed(experiment with other flavors)
2 ounces bourbon whiskey
In a non stick skillet over low heat combine the olive oil,
garlic, tomato paste, and the crushed bouillon cube. When the
olive oil and tomato paste have blended and begin to bubble, add
the bourbon. BE VERY CAREFUL because the bourbon should and will
ignite. If it doesn’t, light it with a match. The alcohol will
burn off quickly, in about one minute. Once the flame has
deminished, add the cream and reduce it by half over medium heat.
It should boil lightly the whole time. Stir often. The finished sauce
will have a light pink shade to it and should coat the back of a
spoon. When it does, remove from heat. Use soon.

While bringing one cup of honey to a boil,take about 15 to 20 cloves of garlic, sliced in half, and toss them into a pint size mason jar.
Scrub a large lemon and slice it thinly. Toss it in the jar with the garlic.
When the honey comes to the boil carefully pour itinto the jar.
Put the lid on it and leave for at least a few hours.
After it cools, strain it and add 1/3 of a cup of soy
sauce. Shake to mix.
Use as a mopping sauce on any cut of pork, chicken,beef ribs. Also delectable as a dippingsauce…mm,mm,mmmm…if you like heat add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the honey.
