TOMATO BASED BARBECUE SAUCE

Tomato Based Barbecue Sauce image

I was responsible for this recipe in class. It is not the typical BBQ sauce, but is out of this world. The list of ingredients may be long, but it is well worth it!! The will yield 1 qt of sauce, enough for 3-4 slabs of ribs or 4-6 chickens. It can also be canned. Just follow the instructions for canning high acid foods. This is also a mild sauce, but you may add 1/4 tsp. of cayenne pepper (or to taste) for a hotter sauce. The chiles used in this recipe are the large dried MILD red chiles called California or New Mexico chiles.

HEAVY TOMATO-BASED BARBECUE SAUCE

Heavy Tomato-Based Barbecue Sauce image

This big batch BBQ sauce recipe came from The Times-Picayune. They say - "Pit master J.T. Handy shared this recipe with Marcelle while at Nicholls State University's culinary school." This sounds like it would be a good match for pork & chicken. Nice thing about sauce like this is it keeps a good long time in the upper back of the fridge. Perfect for a big Fourth of July cookout!
