Carolina Style Low Carb Barbecue Sauce Food

LOW CARB SUGAR-FREE BBQ SAUCE RECIPE - KETO & GLUTEN-FREE

Steps:

• 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.

LOW CARB BBQ SAUCE- KETO FRIENDLY

Steps:

• In a sauce pan over medium, add sweetener, vinegars and water. Mix until sweetener is dissolved.
• Add tomato paste and remaining ingredients. Stir until fully combined. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer.
• Let simmer about 15 minutes to incorporate all ingredients and build flavor.
• NOTES*
• If you like a thinner sauce, add a touch more water until desired thickness is reached.
• If you like a more sour sauce, add a little more vinegar.
• Go easy with the liquid smoke, a little goes a long way!
• This recipe is very easily adaptable to different sweeteners. Using a white sweetener will result in a sauce that is more red in color.
• The butter makes a nice glossy finish and helps the sauce adhere to whatever you brush it on.
• Store in pint sized mason jar refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

TANGY, BOLD KETO BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Add the first 10 ingredients into a medium saucepan and simmer for 45 minutes (or longer if you prefer a thicker sauce).
• Measure the remaining ingredients into the BBQ sauce and blend with a stick blender (or use a blender) until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings. Taste the next day and adjust further as it will mellow upon cooling. This results in a tangy sauce. (SEE BELOW FOR A VARIATION.)
• Cool completely, pour into a clean air tight container, and refrigerate up to 10 days.
• VARIATION: Saute the onions and garlic in 1 tbsp butter until softened, then add the rest of the ingredients. Add the remaining butter after cooking. This results in a more mellow flavored sauce.
• Makes 2 1/2 - 3 cups. Serving size is 2 tbsp and is 1 net carb per serving.
