The Anatomy of a BBQ Sauce

Most BBQ sauces include tomato sauce (or ketchup), mustard, and vinegar in addition to further spices and generally one thing for sweetness. Mine is closely tomato and applesauce-based. I add an honest quantity of vinegar and steadiness it out with a spread of spices. Some individuals use liquid smoke (a bottled smoky water substance) to realize the smoky taste of BBQ sauce, however I want to make use of smoked paprika.

They’re nice for shaking, mixing, and storing. The second is an immersion blender (stick blender). This one has further attachments so it’s good for pureeing, whisking, and chopping.
