INSTRUCTIONS

Start by unceremoniously dumping the ketchup into a large pot on low heat. Mix in the apple cider vinegar, Worcester sauce, tomato paste, molasses, soy sauce, Sriracha, chicken stock, liquid smoke, lemon juice, and tabasco. Add the bay leafs.

In a separate bowl mix the Ancho chili, garlic, and onion powders, smoked paprika, cumin, brown sugar, salt, pepper, mustard powder, and chili powder. Add the dry ingredients to the sauce.

Let the mixture cook on medium-low heat for 60 to 90 minutes, stirring slowly to keep it from boiling over. The cooking helps to combine all the flavors and reduce the mixture into a thick BBQ sauce.

NOTES

You can adjust the thickness of the sauce by how long you cook it.
