Steps:
- 1. Gather your dry ingredients.
- 2. Gather your sauce ingredients.
- 3. Rough chop the bacon, onion, & the garlic.
- 4. Chef's Note: What's a rough chop. A rough chop is when the veggies need to be cut up but they are not a part of the presentation of the dish.
- 5. Chef's Note: Take a nice big swig of the bourbon... just to make sure it's fresh.
- 6. Place a skillet over medium heat, and then add the bacon.
- 7. Cook, stirring regularly, until the bacon begins to brown, but not burn, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- 8. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet.
- 9. Continue to cook and stir, until the onions have softened, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- 10. Add all of the dry ingredients.
- 11. Chef's Note: The cayenne sends this sauce into the hot category. You can cut that down to a small pinch, or leave it out altogether. When I leave it out, I usually add a bit of cumin as a substitute.
- 12. Stir until they are combined into the bacon/onion mixture.
- 13. Chef's Note: Take another swig of the bourbon... just to make sure it's still fresh.
- 14. Deglaze the pan with a generous splash of bourbon (a nice large shot).
- 15. Immediately take the pan off heat.
- 16. Add the contents of the pan to a blender or stand mixer.
- 17. Add the coffee, espresso, ketchup, honey, and soy sauce.
- 18. Chef's Note: When I talk about using ketchup in this recipe, I would really hope you choose a homemade variety. Otherwise you are making a condiment out of a condiment. Besides, store-bought ketchup has things in it, other than ketchup. Go homemade... if you can. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/versatile-homemade-ketchup.html?r=1

AWESOME BBQ SAUCE
Steps:
- Saute the onion in the oil until translucent, add both bottles of BBQ sauce and let simmer for 20 minutes with a lid slightly ajar to avoid spurting mess. Stir often.
Tips:
- Choose the right ingredients: High-quality ingredients make all the difference in the flavor of your barbecue sauce. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes, onions, and garlic. If you can, use homemade chicken or beef stock instead of store-bought. And don't skimp on the spices - they're what give barbecue sauce its unique flavor.
- Cook it low and slow: Barbecue sauce is best when it's cooked low and slow. This allows the flavors to meld and develop. Simmer your sauce for at least 30 minutes, or even longer if you have the time.
- Taste test and adjust: As your sauce is cooking, taste it regularly and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may need to add more sugar, spices, or vinegar to get the perfect balance of flavors.
- Let it cool and thicken: Once your sauce is cooked, let it cool slightly before storing it. This will allow the flavors to continue to develop and the sauce to thicken up.
- Store it properly: Barbecue sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 6 months. Be sure to store it in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out.
Conclusion:
With so many different barbecue sauce recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that you love. Experiment with different ingredients and flavors to create your own unique sauce. And don't be afraid to get creative - there are no rules when it comes to barbecue sauce!
