Nothing beats a sweet, spicy, and smoky BBQ Sauce! Check out this easy BBQ sauce recipe, focused on working with layering flavours and starting with an ingredient you all probably have in the cupboard as a base – almighty ketchup! Not a ketchup fan!? No worries, simply swap it out for your base of choice, blended cooked sweet potato, beets, or simply tomato paste. You can make this sauce in a snap this grillin’ season (and beyond) and use it as a marinade, dipping sauce for veggies, tofu, our mushroom steaks, and seitan! This one comes out thick, silky, and damn delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 T olive oil
  • 1/2 Onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves Garlic, chopped
  • 1 small Chilli pepper, (fresno or cayenne are great choices )chopped

  • ¼ C Apple cider vinegar
  • 2 T Brown coconut sugar
  • 2 T Black strap molasses
  • 2 Chipotle in adobo
  • 1 T Sriracha
  • 2 tsp T Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Mustard powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • about 1 C of water
  • 1 T vegan butter

Instructions

  1. Heat a pan over medium heat and add oil, swirl to coat the surface.
    Add onion, garlic, and chopped chili in a pan and saute until the garlic and onions start to caramelize.
