1/2cupchicken or beef stock or 1/2 cup cooking liquid from pork or beef roast
1/2cupapple cider vinegar
1/4cupbrown sugar subtitute
1tablespoonmolassesnot blackstrap
1/4cupWorcestershire sauce
1/4teaspooncayenne peppermore or less, to taste
1teaspoonkosher salt
1teaspoonfreshly ground pepper
Instructions
Add all ingredients to a 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat and whisk to combine.
Bring liquid to a light boil, then immediately reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to reduce liquid by one-fourth, or until desired consistency is reached.
Taste for seasoning and add more salt, pepper, or cayenne as desired.
Store unused sauce in a mason jar or other tightly sealed container for up to one week.
Notes
This sauce is tangy, sweet, and a little spicy. It is perfect over pulled pork, grilled chicken, or anywhere you'd use a traditional bbq sauce.Add additional sweetener, vinegar, or cayenne to taste, depending on your preferences.We prefer to use the liquid leftover from cooking our low carb pulled pork in place of broth, but broth works just fine too!
