Memphis Style Barbecue Sauce THM-FP

This tangy sweet barbecue sauce takes wings, pork, and ribs to a new level. Best of all, it isn’t filled with all kinds of sugar and corn syrup. I love this sauce and always keep it on hand for any kind of meat. I have even canned large amounts in the summertime using sauce from fresh tomatoes.

Memphis Style Barbecue Sauce THM-FP

  • 4 cups tomato sauce
  • 3/4 cup diced onions
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 4 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
  • 2 tablespoon liquid smoke
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle chili pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon Black Strap Molasses
  • 1/4 – 1/2 cup THM Gentle Sweet or Brown Sugar Sweetener Substitute
  • 1 cup tomato paste

Blend together tomato sauce, onions, and garlic until smooth. Pour into a sauce pan. Add vinegar, soy sauce, seasonings, molasses, and sweetener. Simmer on medium-low heat for 1 hour. Whisk in tomato paste. Cool. This will keep for an extended time in the refrigerator.

*To get the smooth texture of bought sauce, blend the cooled sauce in your blender until smooth.

*If you would like it a bit thicker add a small amount of xanthan gum when you blend the sauce.

To can: fill pint jars with sauce. Add 1/4 teaspoon Ascorbic Acid on top of the sauce. Add rings and lids. Place in a hot water bath canner. Bring to a gentle boil for 20 minutes. Remove from canner and allow to cool. Check seals before storing.

  5. I’ve never used ascorbic acid – how is this sold? Where have you purchased? I’m thinking I’d like to use up some of my tomatoes and can this recipe. Do you know how many pints this would make? Do I need to double the recipe?
