Ingredients:
-
2 1/2 6-oz cans Tomato paste
-
1/2 cup Apple cider vinegar
-
1/4 cup Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend (to taste)
-
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce *
-
1 tbsp Liquid hickory smoke
-
2 tsp Smoked paprika
-
1 tsp Garlic powder
-
1/2 tsp Onion powder
-
1/2 tsp Sea salt
-
1/4 tsp Chili powder
-
1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper (or more if you like it hot)
-
1 1/2 cup Water (approximate amount - see instructions)
Directions:
-
Whisk all ingredients together in a saucepan, adding the water last. Start with a cup of water, then whisk in a bit more at a time, until it reaches a consistency *slightly thinner* than barbecue sauce. I ended up using about 1 1/2 cups of water, but it will vary depending on how thick your tomato paste is.
-
Bring to a gentle boil at medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low. Simmer, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
-
Taste and adjust sweetener or cayenne pepper if you prefer the sauce to be sweeter or spicier. If it's still thicker than you like, you can stir in additional water, a tablespoon at a time, until reaching desired consistency.
