Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups ketchup
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (for tang)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (brightens the flavor)
2 teaspoons soy sauce (adds umami)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (like Tabasco – optional, for a kick)
1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional, balances acidity)
Instructions:
1. Combine Ingredients:
In a small saucepan, whisk together all ingredients.
2. Simmer:
Bring the mixture to a low simmer over medium heat.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken slightly.
3. Cool and Store:
Let cool completely.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
