Stiring a jar of homemade bbq sauce with a spoon

We think one of the most important parts of a great BBQ is an excellent BBQ sauce!

Some people may say it’s the company you keep, but I think they’ve just not tried the right BBQ sauce yet… While there are plenty of lovely shop-bought BBQ sauces available in the supermarket, you simply can’t beat a homemade bbq sauce!

Over the years, we’ve been tweaking and testing our recipe, and we think we’ve finally found the perfect recipe. I love how much you can taste the tomato in this sauce, it helps to keep the sauce fresh and sweet without being overpowering. However, there’s still a delicious smokiness to it and a slight kick from the paprika.

It’s so straightforward to make, it’s easy to adjust to your preferences. You can tailor it to what you’re having, maybe a little more paprika for more smokey heat with a cauliflower steak, or a little more brown sugar for added caramel sweetness when topping a vegan hotdog!
