Here's a recipe for barbeque sauce I have been using for sometime now. Friends love it. Here goes! Just add all these ingredients together in a pot on the stove just till sauce is warmed than cool.

Danny's Bourbon Sauce

1/4 cup molasses
1 cup catschup
2 cups vinegar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
11/4 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoon franks hot sauce
4 tablespoons Whiskey or bourbon

Danny--
Looks tasty. Cider vinegar--or a different vin?

Corn starch, that is the first time I have seen this in a sauce. I will have to give this a try. I have given it some thought, or maybe xamtham gum, but I have never used corn starch.


Thanks ,
Rick

I tend to reduce for thickening but that's not always appropriate. I'm not sure how the cornstarch would work here--perhaps Danny can elaborate--it's thickening ability is diminished or eliminated when a lot of acid is present, a problem with several starches.

Sorry I need to revise the ingredients. I'm typing and not checking my words. Anyhow, I used 4 tablespoons of white vinegar not 2 cups. As well, when the sauce is slowly warming, add the corns starch to a couple tablespoons of water and stir till mixed as a milky fluid. Slowly add to the sauce while stiring the mixture. Corn starch thickens and adheres to the ribs more.

This sauce looks pretty good..I'll try this one and post my results...
