Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped as finely as you can
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup molasses
  • 1/3 cup white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoons liquid smoke

Instructions

  1. Preheat a saucepan over medium heat. Place the onions in the pan and saute in oil until browned (about 7 min). Add the garlic and saute for another minute. Add all the other ingredients except the mustard and liquid smoke, and cook for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour, uncovered, stirring occasionally.
  2. Lower the heat if the sauce begins to splatter everywhere. Add the mustard and liquid smoke and taste for sweetness/sourness. Adjust the flavors if you think it's necessary, and cook for 5 more minutes. If you like a smooth BBQ sauce then puree it, but thats not entirely necessary.
