Dr Pepper BBQ Sauce
Total time
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter (I used salted)
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1 cup ketchup
- 3 Tbsp tomato paste
- One 12-ounce can Dr. Pepper
- ½ cup cider vinegar
- ⅓ cup Worcestershire sauce
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp salt
- In a large saucepan, melt butter.
- Add chopped onions and garlic. Saute until onions are translucent. (About 10 minutes.)
- Whisk all remaining ingredients in a bowl, add to saucepan. Bring to a boil for about 10 minutes. (Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.)
- Simmer under a slow boil for 30 minutes. The sauce will begin to thicken. Stir occasionally. Seasonings may be adjusted per taste.
- Remove from heat to allow to cool for 10 minutes (or until warm but not boiling hot.)
- Puree with blender. This will thicken the sauce.
- Let cool.
- Keep tightly sealed in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
