a simple and quick BBQ sauce. Excellent for coating poultry or ribs or using as a dip. For glazing, I prefer a smooth blend.

I will surely make it again but more garlic power baby
Added some water as was too thick, 1 heaping teaspoon of smoked paprika and half teaspoon of cinnamon
I added 4 drops of liquid smoke and yes I will make this again
I made this for my family and they loved the sauce. The only thing I did different is I added extra brown sugar.
Interesting flavor with the fennel seeds and soy sauce, very non-traditional. I ran short of BBQ sauce for a slow cooker pulled pork recipe today, so I made this easy sauce, and used about 1/2 cup to top off off the pork. I think this would be outstanding on ribs or even grilled pork chops.
instead of onions we used green pepper yummy
Really, really easy and so quick to make!! 🙂 We were really happy with it. We used it in a slow cooker with chicken and it came out great! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
