Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1¾ Cup Ketchup I usually try and source the best quality I can find, without a ton of sugar or corn syrup. Health.
  • ½ Cup Water The wetter, the better
  • ¼ Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • ¼ Cup White Vinegar
  • ½ Cup Maple Syrup
  • 2 TBSP Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 TBSP Chili Powder
  • 1 TBSP Cumin
  • 1½ tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1½ tsp Coarse Ground Black Pepper Use coarse ground. You want to see the little bits of pepper floating around in the sauce. None of that fine ground garbage.
  • 1 each Lemon, juiced

Method
 

  1. Combine all of the ingredients in a medium sauce pan and whisk to combine.
  2. Heat over medium and allow to gently simmer for about 5 minutes. Just long enough to heat it though and allow the flavors to combine from all of the spices and other ingredients.
  3. Let cool before serving.
