Homemade St. Louis Style BBQ Sauce


Hope everyone had a great Fathers Day! I had a wonderful day! I ended up smoking another whole chicken on the grill and making up this batch of BBQ sauce. My wife and son Ty made me a great breakfast so the whole day was amazing!!

Tyler who just turned 6 is quite the comedian. He has a great sense of humor and had in full effect today!
Here's a pic of him acting goofy today:


Anyways! Here is the recipe for the BBQ Sauce. Which I would suggest you use with chicken or ribs. Since it's St. Louis Style, it has a stronger vinegar base. It has a hint of mustard and cinnamon, with a lingering heat from the chipotle.


2 cups ketchup
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey mustard
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/3 cup chipotle sauce
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
2 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon orange juice
2 tablespoon liquid smoke hickory
2 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon sugar

Preparation:

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over a med heat. Bring to a soft boil, cover and reduce to simmer for 1 hour to infuse all the flavors and reduce. Store in an airtight container and refrigerate. Sauce is better if allow to sit for a day.
If your going to jar it and don't know how. Here is a tutorial:
