Homemade Barbecue Sauce

This sauce is the love child of ketchup and teriyaki sauce with a few added ingredients. Feel free to adjust the sweetness or spiciness. Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to barbecue. This is a basic sauce that can be twisted a million different ways. Add some bourbon or curry or lime, you name it. Get creative!


3/4 cup Teriyaki Sauce
1 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 tablespoon cumin
1/4 - 1/2 cup raw honey (or more if you like a sweeter sauce, like me)
1/2 tablespoon crushed red pepper (or more if you like a spicer sauce, like my husband)
juice of one orange

Mix all ingredients together. Use immediately if you are baking with it or using it in a crockpot. Otherwise, simmer for 30 minutes over medium-low heat to develop the flavors.
