Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
• 1 medium green bell pepper, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup tomato paste
• 1 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
• 0.5 cup apple cider vinegar
• 3 tablespoons molasses
• 2 tablespoons Creole mustard (or Dijon mustard)
• 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Tabasco)
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion, celery, and green bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes to slightly caramelize it.

Step 5

Pour in the crushed tomatoes, apple cider vinegar, and molasses. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Mix in the Creole mustard, dark brown sugar, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, cayenne pepper, thyme, and salt.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. If you'd like a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to puree the sauce to your desired consistency.

Step 9

Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
