In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to the pan. Toast the spices for 30 seconds, stirring frequently to release their aroma.
Pour in the brewed coffee and whisk to combine with the toasted spices.
Add in the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, molasses, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce should thicken slightly.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, sugar, or cayenne pepper to suit your preferences.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the sauce to cool slightly before using.
Use immediately as a marinade, basting sauce, or condiment, or store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks.
