I don't know about you, but I love sauces, and a good BBQ sauce is so versatile it can be used in all kinds of dishes. And while there are a lot of great BBQ sauces out there, this homemade BBQ sauce recipe is one of the best I've ever had. I like to make a big batch of BBQ sauce, put it in small jars and then keep in in the freezer until I need it.
Whenever I need some delicious BBQ sauce, say to lather on ribs or on top of a BBQ salad, I just pop it in the fridge to thaw for a few hours and its ready to use. It'll keep in the freezer for up to six months and keeps in the fridge for several weeks.
