1/4 cup Cider Vinegar
1/2 cup water
2 tbs. Sugar
1 tbs. Mustard
1/4 cup Butter
1 whole Lemon Slice
1 whole Onion -- boned, cook & sliced
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1 1/2 tbs. Salt
1/4 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
1 cup Heinz Catsup
2 tbs. Worcestershire Sauce
In a saucepan, mix vinegar, water, sugar, mustard, butter, lemon, onion, and seasonings. Simmer, uncovered, 20 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce and catsup, bring back to a boil and its done.
NOTE: When doubling this recipe add about 1/4 to 1/3 cup brown sugar. This gives the sauce more of a sweet and sour taste. It is just excellent on Baby Back Ribs, which I simmer in water with a little vinegar, garlic and just a pinch of salt for about 30 minutes before barbecuing. Through trial and error, I have found that Heinz ketchup is thicker and makes a "clingier" sauce.
