Notes

TO STORE: Barbecue sauce must always be stored in the refrigerator, in a sealed container or jar. It will remain fresh for up to 2 weeks.

TO FREEZE: Place leftover sauce in a freezer friendly container and store in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Recipe variations

Make it spicy. For a spicy kick, add some cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. Alternatively, you can even stir through some hot or buffalo sauce after it thickens.
Enhance the flavor. While optional, sometimes I like to stir in yellow mustard or lemon juice for extra flavor.
