Jim- I'm working on something now. I have a rub that I put together that I want to base my sauce on. It's gonna be a KC style(where I learned how to BBQ) sauce, which means sweet and smokey, probably with some celery seed. In the meantime try this out:
Struttin' Sauce Recipe
1 tb Oil, preferably canola
1 Medium onion, chopped
2 Cloves garlic, minced
1 c Tomato puree
3/4 c Cider vinegar
3/4 c Water
6 tb Brown sugar
6 tb Chili powder
1/4 c Tomato paste
3 tb Worcestershire sauce
3 ts Celery salt
1 tb Prepared yellow mustard
1 tb Fresh ground black pepper
1 tb Corn syrup
1 tb Pure liquid hickory smoke
3/4 c Water
In a saucepan, warm the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and
garlic and sauté until they are softened, about 5 minutes. Mix in the
remaining ingredients, reduce the heat to low, and cook the mixture
until it thickens, approximately 30 minutes. Stir frequently. If the
consistency is thicker than you prefer, add a little water. Use the
sauce warm or chilled. It keeps, refrigerated, for a couple of weeks.
It's based on Gates' famous sauce.
