DIY Groceries-Barbecue Rubs and Sauces 4


Here is one last post of recipes for a barbecue rub and sauce for this go round.   The rub is very basic and has fewer ingredients than the rubs posted previously, but it is still very useful.  I do not know the source of this recipe.

I occasionally can purchase commercial barbecue sauces on sale at a good price.  I check the label; and , if it has no high fructose corn syrup, I will purchase a bottle or two.  Bull’s-Eye Barbecue Sauce is one such product.  The recipe today is for a “doctored up” commercial or homemade barbecue sauce.  Add just a few ingredients,  and a commercial sauce becomes almost homemade.  This is a sticky sauce with molasses undertones.  It is great on both pork and chicken.  This recipe  is adapted from Allrecipes.

Basic Barbecue Rub
2 T. Chili Powder
1 T. Granulated Garlic
1 T. Onion Powder
1 T. Ground Cumin
1/2 T. Ground Black Pepper

Mix all ingredients together and store in an airtight container.

Sticky and Tangy Barbecue Sauce
1 cup honey
1 cup ketchup  
2 tablespoons molasses
1 (18-ounce) bottle barbecue sauce (or an equivalent of homemade sauce.

Mix ingredients together, blending well.  Brush on ribs or chicken, cooked on a grill or in the oven, during the last 15 to 30 minutes of cooking.  This keeps for a month or so in the refrigerator if using commercial sauce.  How long it would keep with homemade sauce would depend on how long the homemade sauce could be kept.
