This incredibly easy basting sauce tastes best when heated on the stove, but it can also be microwave-warmed. Use it when grilling any kind of meat, but be sure to wait until the meat is almost done before applying, since - like all barbecue sauces – this concoction burns easily on a hot grill.

Ingredients:

2 cups ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
½ tablespoon dry mustard
½ cup dry red wine and/or ¼ cup apple cider, red wine or rice vinegar
½ cup minced onion
1-2 cloves garlic, minced or crushed
Salt and pepper (preferably freshly ground) to taste

Directions: Combine ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat for about ten minutes, stirring frequently. Sauce can be kept in the fridge for up to a week.

Quick Tip: If a spicy kick gets your motor running, add a finely chopped jalapeno pepper to the mix. Have a sweet tooth? Throw in some honey, brown sugar or Canadian maple syrup.
