I make a large amount of this sauce and store in a large jar in the refrigerator. It may be used on anything. Very sweet and savory. I make a large amount, but please feel free to cut the recipe in half if needed. We hope you enjoy it!

1 stick buatter
6 cups ketchup
3/4 cup yellow mustard
1/2 cup white vinegar
1-1/2 Tb minced garlic
2 Tb ground black pepper
2 tsp ground red pepper flakes
1 Tb Liquid Smoke
2 Tb worcestershire sauce
1-2 Tb hot sauce (To taste, but if using Tabasco, cut amount in half)
2 Tb lemon juice, or juice of 1/2 lemon
3/4 cup dark brown sugar

In a medium-large saucepan, melt stick of butter over low to medium low heat. Add ketchup, mustard and vinegar. Stir until smooth. Bring to a low simmer.

Add garlic, pepper, red pepper flakes, Liquid Smoke, worcestershire sauce, hot sauce and lemon juice. Stir and simmer about 5-10 minutes.

Add brown sugar and mix well to dissolve approximately 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit 10 minutes.
