Ingredients

  • 1 cup Ketchup
  • ½ cup Pineapple Juice
  • ¼ cup Piiloncillo grated
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon allspice
  • ¼ cup cider Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon Worcestershire

Instructions

  • Simply add all ingredients to a medium pot or sauce pan.
  • Bring everything to a boil and then reduce to a simmer on low heat for about 15 minutes until flavors come together.
  • Allow the sauce to cool then add it to a mason jar

Notes

I used bottled pineapple juice to make the sauce, but you can use fresh pineapple, juiced. I've also used canned pineapple nectar. Likewise if you wanted a different flavor profile you could use a peach or mango juice in combination with pineapple juice or as an alternative to.
Tweak the ingredient ratios to get the desired flavor profile.
Piloncillo is great as a sweetener and for adding more complex flavor. You can find it in the spice or baking aisle in most large format grocery stores. Feel free to substitute with molasses or brown sugar if it's not available to you.
The sauce will thicken the longer it cooks, but if you're short on time make a slurry and add to the sauce as a thickener. Slurries are simply a mix of water and cor starch.
This sauce stores well in mason jars.
Add some hot sauce for a hint of spice unless you add a lot!
This is a pretty versatile barbecue sauce recipe. Use it on smoked pork ribs, barbecue chicken breasts, chicken wings, pork chops, or on anything else you normally put regular bbq sauce on.
