I went to make BBQ chicken last night only to discover that I was out of sauce. A quick look through the refrig & I was able to come up with the following sauce that my family went crazy for.
1 TB butter
1 med yellow onion
1 TB liquid smoke
1 Medium Orange (Navel)
1 Tsp Red Hot sauce
1 TB Worchester sauce (Lea & Parens)
4 Cups ketchup (Heinz)
2 Cups Light Brown sugar
In a sauce pan, melt butter and thinly sliced and chopped onion, & Liquid Smoke. Saute until onion get soft. Zest ( the finer the better, as it’s all about the oil in the skin ) the entire orange and add to pot. Juice the orange directly into pot. Add ketchup and the remaining ingredients. Simmer for 30 mins. Sauce thickens as it cooks. Cook chicken on the grill or in the oven with just a little salt & pepper on the skin. in the last 10 minutes of cooking spoon BBQ sauce over the chicken ( or pork ) reserving half. 5 minutes later cover the chicken with the remaining sauce.
Serve with tomato salad, NJ white corn, and baked potatoes.
Enjoy! A wonderful summer meal.
