Here in Texas, we don't cook with BBQ sauce, but we love it on the side to spoon over our brisket, fajitas, chicken, etc and it has to have a little kick. I've been told over and over again that this is the best BBQ sauce they've ever had and I ought to bottle it. I love to cook, but I don't want to do it for a living--so enjoy it for free.

Steps:
- Sauté onions, bell peppers, and garlic in butter, just until onions are translucent.
- Add chili powder, and dry mustard. Stir to incorporate.
- Lower heat and add remaining ingredients. Simmer on low for at least one hour.
- Let cool then blend smooth in food processor or use a hand held mixer (a boat motor as Emeril would say).
- Put up in mason jars. If you actually "can" the sauce it will keep for a month or so. (There are no preservitives so be careful). If not, use what you need, it will keep in the fridg for a couple of weeks, and you can always give the rest away--your family and friends will love you for it.
- Note: Be careful with the habenero peppers. Use gloves or put a plastic baggie over the hand you use to hold the pepper while you slice it up. Use one for medium-hot BBQ sauce, use two for down right hot. If even one is too hot for your taste, substitute a couple of jalapeno peppers.
