Ron’s BBQ Sauce

I have a truly great recipe, today! If spring is here, can summer be far behind? And so I present you with this outstanding barbecue sauce - equally excellent for meat, poultry, and seafood. It’s guaranteed to be the best you’ve ever tasted! 

Ron’s BBQ Sauce:

1 c. (250 mL) ketchup

¼ c. (60 mL) lemon juice

¼ c. (60 mL) honey or light brown sugar 

1 tsp. (5 mL) garlic powder

2 tsp. (10 mL) prepared mustard (such as French’s or a Dijon variety)

3 tbsp. (45 mL) Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp. (5 mL) salt (Ron omits the salt entirely)

¼ (1.25 mL) tsp. thyme

Combine well, simmering 5 min. Cool and bottle. This keeps in the fridge for a month. Great for basting chicken, baby back ribs, or any meat or fish, it doesn’t flare up on the barbecue. Makes 1-1/2 c. (375 mL).

Note: This sauce is so versatile that Ron always makes a double batch. Handy to keep on hand, it costs only pennies!
