BBQ Sauce, from Jim Sogi
Just made some killer BBQ sauce: tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, molasses, brown sugar, cinnamon stick, garlic salt, liquid smoke, chili powder, rice vinegar, Jack Daniels, fine chopped onions, clove powder. Soak braised ribs for a couple hours before heating in the oven or over coals. Oh my gosh, "Broke da mouth" as they say in Hawaii.
Jeff Watson adds:
If you were to sauté the onion and garlic in butter instead of oil, the chemistry dictates that the onion will be sweet instead of bitter.
