Apple Butter Barbecue Sauce image

I saw jars of apple butter BBQ sauce at an apple orchard a few weeks ago. I thought this was a splendid idea-especially for ribs. I've scoured the Internet, and this recipe looks like the best bet. It's originally from Smuckers, (featuring their apple butter). That said, I made a large batch of apple butter (Recipe #70016), so I'm using homemade. Again, use what you can get.

Time 20m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup smucker's cider apple butter (or your own)
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3 teaspoons liquid smoke
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • Add everything together. Well, that's where their recipe ends. I think that's silly. So, let's continue.
  • Sauté the onion in a frying pan with a little bit of olive oil, medium heat. Cook till translucent.
  • Add the garlic, cook for about a minute.
  • Put everything into a sauce pot on medium heat, stir everything together.
  • Before a boil begins, drop the heat to low and simmer for 15-20 min., stirring frequently.
  • Take it off heat, let it cool for 30 minute (unless you're canning, of course).
  • Store it however you wish. It should keep in the fridge for 30 days, in a freezer for longer, or just can it.
