Don’s BBQ Sauce
This is a hot spicy sauce that is great for Ribs, or chicken or just for dipping I make a large batch then freeze it in small quantities It can also be canned in a boiling water canner as the ph of the tomatoes (already low) has been reduced by the addition of the rice wine vinegar. If ‘hot and spicy’ is not your thing then cut the chipotle powder and hot sauce back a bit.
