In a medium-sized saucepan, combine ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and molasses. Stir well over medium heat.
Add Worcestershire sauce and yellow mustard to the mixture. Continue stirring until smooth and consistent.
Sprinkle in smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly to blend the spices into the sauce.
Pour in water to thin the mixture slightly, adjusting consistency as desired. Stir again.
Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low. Allow it to cook uncovered for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings if needed. For more sweetness, add a bit more brown sugar or molasses. For extra heat, increase the cayenne pepper.
Remove from heat and let the sauce cool slightly. Transfer to a clean jar or airtight container.
Serve immediately with ribs, chicken, or any grilled favorite. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
