1 small onion, diced
5 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup brown sugar
4-5 Tbsp pomegranate molasses (found at Greek groceries or at Trader Joe's)
1 and 1/4 tsp liquid smoke (optional)
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp salt, + to taste
1 Tbsp cayenne
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup champagne vinegar
1/4 c water
1 Tbsp dry mustard
1 tsp chili flakes (more or less, to taste)

Steps:

Purée ingredients in blender or food processor. Combine everything in a saucepan and bring to a boil. When the pomegranate mixture starts to bubble, stir and turn down the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until slightly thickened. Sauce will thicken more as it cools. You can pour it over anything you would eat BBQ sauce with or freeze it for later. Alternately, cover uncooked meat for kebabs with sauce, skewer them, and then grill or broil meat with sauce.
