Easy BBQ Sauce & Marinade
Makes about 1½ cups
This recipe is not only a great sauce but it truly is one of the best marinades.
I like it with chicken but it's also good with pork and beef.
Ingredients
• 1 Tbsp butter
• ½ of medium onion, ½-inch dice
• ½ cup water
• ½ cup catsup
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1½ Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 Tbsp vinegar
• 1 tsp dry mustard
Instructions
1. In a medium skillet set over medium-high heat, melt the butter; add the
onion and saute until translucent.
2. Add the remaining ingredients and mix; cook about 10 minutes. Cool; use
immediately or pour into a jar and seal. Store in refrigerator.
Options
• Use an immersion blender to emulsify the sauce.

Recipes are like stories; they can change from person to person. Everyone has their idea of how a recipe should be, even
though it may have changed from the original. We will never know the true author of the original recipe, regardless of
what some may say. That's why I go back and look through the oldest cookbooks that I can find. Sometimes it's not the
recipe in the books that I find, but the tiny pieces of handwritten recipes and newspaper articles that are stuck within
the pages. That's where the real story is, finding those simple Southern recipes. -Mac
