This is how to make BBQ sauce like a boss!

Fire up your flavour game with a home made barbecue sauce recipe which clings to everything from a rack of ribs to roasted veg. Whether you’re brushing over sizzling meat or you’re dipping chips, this kitchen staple is all about big, bold BBQ comfort. 

If you want to know how to make BBQ sauce, there’s no-one better to ask than the Pioneer Woman herself, Ree Drummond! Her recipe begins with a splash of rapeseed oil, before garlic and onion are cooked gently until soft. Stir in the rest - ketchup for that classic base, molasses and brown sugar for sweetness, and a dash of vinegar for a bit of zing. Chipotle peppers add a smoky heat, and the Worcestershire sauce brings a savoury kick. 

This homemade BBQ sauce recipe is a genuine all-rounder. Slather it over ribs, chicken wings, or burgers, or brush onto sausages for a proper banger upgrade. It’s equally at home as a dip for chips, a glaze for roasted vegetables, or even stirred into pulled pork for that classic sticky finish. 

The real joy of this incredible home made barbecue sauce recipe is in making it your own! Dial up the heat with extra chipotle, go sweeter with extra brown sugar, or zing it up with a drop more vinegar.
