Cooking with Beer - Spicy Beer Barbecue Sauce
A beerific twist on barbecue sauce that adds zippy tang to any meat dish. I like it on grilled chicken or on my Barbecue Bacon Meatloaf or Dry Rub Baby Back Ribs.
A darker beer will produce a richer more flavorful sauce. I used a bottle of my husband's home brewed nut brown ale. Yum!
Spicy Beer Barbecue Sauce
2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
1 Medium Onion, Minced
1/3 Cup Celery, Minced
1 Tablespoon Garlic, Minced
1 Tablespoon Hot Hungarian Paprika
3/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
3/4 Cup Ketchup
1/2 Cup Beer
1/4 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
Over medium heat, warm oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Saute onion and celery until translucent about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, paprika and cayenne; cook for about 1 minute.
Process in a food process or a blender until smooth and return to pan.
Add ketchup, beer, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce.
Reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for about 30 minutes, until sauce has thickened.
Make ahead and store for up to a week in the refrigerator.
