Snappy Barbecue Sauce
We don't use a lot of barbecue sauce now, but there was a time when we seemed to go through it quickly. I got tired of spending money to buy it*, and so used this recipe from our reliable Better Homes and Garden New Cook Book. It's because of this recipe that we have celery seed in our pantry!
1 cup catsup (or 1/2 of a 24 ounce bottle)
1 cup water
1/4 cup vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon celery seed
2 dashes Tabasco sauce
Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
*This was before the days of working for the Clorox Company. After receiving complimentary bottles of K.C. Masterpiece barbecue sauce for a while, we're pretty loyal fans of their original concoction, but there are still times when it's nice to make barbecue sauce from scratch.
