Barbecue Sauce
3 cans tomato sauce
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1 cup brown sugar
juice of 3 lemons
3 large cloves garlic
1-2 tsp black pepper (or more to taste)
1 tbs salt (or less to taste)
1 tbs cayenne pepper
1 tbs hot red chile
1 tbs paprika
2-3 tsp Tabasco (or more to taste)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
Combine everything in a double boiler, stirring occasionally, until
the sauce is the thickness you want. Be sure not to let the mixture
come to a boil, though, it ruins the flavor. To get it to a state
where it sticks to the ribs without help usually takes me about
45-70 min over a gentle boil.
