Ingredients
28oztomatoes of your choosing 1 large can, I like crushed
1cupbrown sugar
2tablespoonApple Cider Vinegar
14ozWhite Vinegar Half of the large can
Instructions
Blend 1 28 oz can of tomateoes to your desired texture, and empty into pot. I use my Vitamix for this.
Add 1 cup brown sugar to the pot.
Add 2 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar to the pot.
Add 14 oz White Vinegar. I like to measure half of the tomato can and rinse it out with the vinegar, so I get every last bit of tomato without having to scrape the can.
Stir well.
Bring to a boil, then simmer on low for approximately 2 hours, or until desired thickness is reached.
Notes
This recipe can be easily doubled, tripled, or more based on how much BBQ sauce you need.To add dimension to this easy gluten free BBQ sauce without ketchup, feel free to add dried or fresh fruit, cayenne pepper, chili poweder, chopped dried or fresh peppers, and more!This sauce is a great base to tweak exactly to your prefrences. We like to add things to small portions of sauce at a time to see if we like the flavors before commiting to a full batch of flavored sauce.We will often do a naked wing night where everyone makes a little bit of their favorite sauce to try with the wings!
