Here is a quick and simple vinegar-based grill sauce that is sharp, tangy, a little spicy, and cuts through rich grilled meat perfectly. Takes about 2 minutes to make and it might ruin bottled BBQ sauce for you

You are on the right track. Now let's talk about central SC mustard bbq sauce.

Thanks for all the recipes. We had the Smoky Chicken and lemon Potatoes last night and it was easy, economical, and excellent. The roasted lemon made the difference.

Grill sauce, wars

Science of cooking: Vinegar is just sugar. Add and cook in for a subtle sweetness that adds body to regular sugar and honey. One of the more fun liquids to cook with, this is why we never throw out wine that is turning-the complex sugars are still all in there. My latest find for vinegar, using pickle brine in rye bread for a 5th of the water. You can thank me later.

Takes about 2 minutes Then why the five minute video ?

I need to babble.

You read my mind! Nice! 😎

Why? When I have @Half_A_Pond 's Hot Sorghum 😋

Chef says something subtle that is an important detail in this recipe. Organic Ketchup!! If you don’t use Organic, you could be adding High Fructose Corn Syrup to your sauce and it will behave and taste differently.

Looks awesome. I take a #10 can of tomato sauce and pour into a half cake pan and smoke it on the pellet grill. I will stir it occasionally and taste it until I find the level of smoke I want. Then use brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and seasonings for homemade BBQ.

Oof. Carolina BBQ and its accompanying sauce is at the bottom of the BBQ totem pole.

I think vinegar is one of the ingredients that most improved my recipes. Thanks for sharing Chef

I grew up with tomato sauce based nothing vinegar based could ever ruin that, but I still like it. This could cause a fight at certain campfires I’ve been around.🤣

You sure you don’t want to adopt a 72 year old dude from Nevada??

Have you tried Alabama white sauce Chef? I really like that on chicken

Love vinegar base bbq sauce this is how we do ours at home too when we smoke bbq butts. Love this video chef!

I would add a nice splash of bourbon or whisky, but then I always add a nice splash of bourbon or whisky to a lot of things.

👏👏👏

So we're just posting straight up porn to the TL now?

I love the thick BBQ sauce.

Lost me at the mustard

This is my favorite type bbq sauce can’t wait to try this recipe. I’ve tried to make this style few times before but could never get just right. I bet the butter will do it

I make something similar but sub adobo from a can of chipotles for the red pepper and ketchup and use plain old yellow mustard. Never thought of adding butter and I think that's exactly what I needed.

What about adding a little dissolved potato starch to that in order to thicken it up if you do like thicker sauce?

I have been trying yo come up with a sugar-free barbecue sauce and nothing hits right

I live in SE NC, this looks delicious!

Bottled sauces have their place for convenience, but this kind of homemade alternative proves most store-bought options are just overpriced sugar syrup. What’s your take on using vinegar base versus tomato base for different meats?

@ToffyFreeman tagging you so we can find and try this in the future.

Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for the detailed explanations of why on all your ingredients!

On my to do list to make

Add horseradish. 😋

I love vinegar-based sauce.

I live in the Carolinas, so I’ll just stick with that.

Chef, do you have a homemade mustard recipe for hamburgers and hotdogs?

You cheffed up Eastern NC bbq sauce! Bookmarked it to try and make it myself.
