My BBQ Sauce
1 c. catsup
1/4-1/2 c. brown sugar (depends on how sweet you like it)
1/4 dark lager beer (or you can use Amber Bock O'dulls)
dash of worcestershire sauce
dash of liquid smoke
dash of hot sauce (I like Chalula the best)
season to taste: Garlic and onion powder, season salt, pepper, and optional small dash of crushed red pepper (or whole is fine too)
In sauce pan over med heat dissolve brown sugar in catsup. Slowly poor in beer. Simmer for 10 minutes. Add rest of liquid ingredients. Add seasonings to taste. Simmer over low heat stirring frequently for 20 minutes
I like to use this for Ribs and Chicken on the grill or in the oven, I don't prefer it for a dipping sauce, but who knows you may enjoy!
