I'm smoking a pork butt today. I want to change up the sauce for the
pulled pork. I've been using a thicker, tomato type sauce. I was
thinking to go for a more vinegar type this time. Do you have any
personal favorites or recommendations? I was kind of thinking of
something like this from Paul Kirk's Championship Barbecue Sauces

2 c ketchup
2 c white vinegar
2 T Worcestershire
1 t black pepper
1 t white pepper
1 t salt
2 bay leaves
1/2 t ground cloves
1/2 t cayenne

What do you think?

this was the only recipe that didn't use cider vinegar. Do you think
that is an important component? I was looking at the % vinegar to
ketchup.

I always use cider. And I never measure anything. And I make a butt
load more than this recipe would. It looks like a good starting point,
mix and taste, taste and mix.

Janet, I'm no Pitmaster but I have eaten barbequed pork all over North
Carolina. It seems that eastern North Carolina barbeque is mostly
served with a vinegar based sauce. Looking at a bottle of this sauce,
it appears as vinegar with red pepper flakes. It imparts a hot burning
sensation in your tongue and throat.

I prefer a thick tomato based sweet barbeque sauce, western North
Carolina style.

You left out

1 pound white sugar
1 pound brown sugar
1 quart honey
1 pound corn syrup
1 teaspoon mollasses

They call that a touch of sweetness in the South.

I would use cane vinegar there. I do not want the fruity of the apple
in there. It's also really vinegar high overall....

If you want to go to a vinegar sauce, drop the ketchup completely. See
my revisions above for what I use on pulled pork.

He says to simmer for 30, that seems fair to me.

I've read over the recipes for the hot sauces and I'm just not in the
mood for that. I've been doing thick tomato based sauces and I just
want to change it up for a bit.

See what you think about this one.
I've made it before and I like it.

1/4 cup minced onion
1 Tbsp. minced fresh jalapeno chile; seeded
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
3 Tbsp. light brown sugar
3 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. Tabasco
2 cups blueberries; frozen or fresh
Salt
Fresh ground pepper

Heat the oil in a non-reactive saucepan. Add the onion and jalapeno
and
cook over moderate heat, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minutes.
Add
the ketchup, vinegar, sugar, mustard and Tabasco and bring to a
simmer.
Add the blueberries and simmer over low heat, stirring until
thickened,
about 10 minutes. Puree the sauce in a blender or food processor
until
smooth. Pass through a strainer and season salt and pepper. Serve at
room temperature.

Use on: Any kind of beefsteak, hamburgers, pork chops, chicken

I meant tomato type sauce generally as I changed up often. I probably
started with this one from this group (a long time ago)

The BBQ Sauce -
(from Dimitri)
2 Cups Ketchup
½ Cup brown sugar
1 Tsp grated lemon zest
6 Tbs. fresh lemon juice or more to taste
2 Tbs. molasses
1Tbs Worcestershire sauce
1 ½ Tsp liquid smoke
2 Tsp dry mustard, preferable Coleman's
1 Tsp Onion Powder
½ Tsp Black Pepper

Heat the sauce to a simmer over heat about 8 to 10
minutes.
Dimitri

Check out The Food Network
http://www.foodnetwork.com/
for sauce recipes. Once you start making your own sauce you have the
basics in the back of your mind and kind of change it out from time to
time. Hope this helps

Hi Janet,

I don't have all of that on hand either. Specifically the lemon zest,
lemon juice and kitchen Bouquet. Thats ok, I'm smoking salon tomorrow
and have what I need here for that.

Kitchen Bouquet? Do you mean Worcestershire sauce? or Liquid smoke?
either one is not Kitchen Bouquet. Kitchen Bouquet is a gravy
seasoning and coloring. Lemon and lemon zest are fairly easy to come
by if you have just one real lemon fruit not the liquid in a bottle.
Lemons were 21 cents at my supermarket yesterday.
The poster may not have the ingredients in his pantry but I bet most
here would consider those ingredients standard for a decently stocked
pantry.

The other person's post was about Kitchen Bouquet (not
worstershire)which is a liquid smoke product. Not one we have handy at
all.

I don't stock lemons because we use them only rarely but Don noted we
had a lemon squeeze plastic thingie (used it on the snapper he just
made us).

Keep in mind there is not really anything like a 'well stocked pantry'
that matches all cooking styles. For you, those may be basics but to a
person who cooks differently, not so much so.

You use a gravy stock same name as the liquid smoke? Interesting! I
use Minors mostly but for some things it's Kum Lee.

Kitchen Bouquet is used to color gravy - it is composed of caramel
with vegetable flavorings. Liquid smoke is not part of the product.

Why would you address me by name about Kitchen Bouquet when it isn't
in my post? Neither Kitchen Bouquet nor Worcestershire Sauce is a
liquid smoke product. Liquid Smoke is labeled and called Liquid
Smoke. I do not use a gravy stock product at all (I never said that I
did). There are no gravy stock products called liquid smoke. I was
attempting to clear up your kitchen confusion. You really need to sit
down and read posts thoroughly.
BTW, I was not suggesting that you make this sauce. I was addressing
the person who asked for a recipe. I gave him one from this group,
from a respected member of this group, from a long time ago. It isn't
something that I whipped up with no thought.

I have no idea why you are buying celery when there is none in the
recipe that I gave you. One small lemon will provide the juice and
the zest and you can throw the rest away.

AFAIC - both can be eliminated if you don't have them or don't like
them. Particularly lemon, if it's only the zest. I've followed many
recipes verbatim and have ended up wondering why they bothered with
zest - not enough bang for the buck. I'd rather use juice if I want
to taste lemon. Celery can go either way. Too much is a prominent
celery flavor, but the right amount is umami in the lightest sense of
the word. I buy a "snack pack" of celery or go to the salad bar if
I'm lucky and the grocery store I'm shopping in has one (my regular
grocery store doesn't).

Janet, people trim wrongly all the time here and that's all is it.
