Ingredients
- 1 cup Yellow mustard
- 0.5 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 0.333 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, honey, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce.
Step 2
Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk the mixture until it is well combined and smooth.
Step 3
Add garlic powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt to the saucepan. If you prefer a spicier sauce, stir in the optional hot sauce.
Step 4
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, and cook for about 8-10 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature.
Step 6
Transfer the Carolina BBQ Gold Sauce to an airtight container or mason jar and store it in the refrigerator. The sauce can be kept refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.
Step 7
Before serving, give the sauce a good stir. Use it as a condiment, glaze, or dipping sauce for your favorite BBQ dishes.
