Homemade BBQ Sauce
This is another recipe from Hubby’s mom. She likes to make this BBQ sauce to give as gifts and often makes a jar for us when we visit. I figured it was about time to just ask for the recipe so we could make it ourselves. It comes together so quick and easy there’s no reason to buy premade BBQ sauce any more!

Recipe from Hubby's mom
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
I love homemade BBQ sauce. I’m partial to my fathers but this one looks great too 🙂
Homemade bbq sauce sounds great! I’ve never attempted to make it at home but it doesn’t look too hard. Thanks for the recipe!
I love homemade BBQ sauce…well homemade everything!!! I love that you photographed it in a mason jar…I’m a sucker for those things!
This sounds great and I will have to try it. I made BBQ chicken quesadillas for lunch and this would have been great to use for that. Next time I will use this recipe! Thanks for sharing.
I’ve made homemade BBQ sauce and bottled has nothing on homemade. It’s been a while and BBQ season is here. I’ll have to give your recipe a try.

How long does this last in the fridge?
Ashley – We store our BBQ sauce in the fridge and it has been fine for a few months. It never goes bad before we use it up.
