Closest thing to Sweet Baby Ray's.
1 1/4 c. ketchup
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup pineapple juice (or apple cider vinegar)
1/4 cup water
1 Tblsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 1/2 tsp. ground mustard (or Colman's ground mustard)
2 tsp. smoked paprika
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper (depending on desired heat)
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. pepper
1/8 cup cold water, mixed with 1 Tblsp. cornstarch
Combine all ingredients except water/cornstarch in medium pot. Bring to a boil. Simmer 5 minutes or until sugar is dissolved.
For thicker consistency, add water/cornstarch and simmer until desired thickness - but watch closely as it thickens quickly.
Serve immediately or store in refrigerator.

These are the recipes I use every day . . . not just my own, but also my favorites from family, friends, and other sources. It is a continual work in progress as I fine-tune recipes, add photos, and try new things. Please leave your comments so that I can learn from you too!
