Sauce cans don't take up much space in our fridge. Except for the homemade tomato sauce that we usually prepare at home to accompany pasta dishes or the traditional Bonito fish with tomato, we do not usually resort to this type of preparation except in exceptions as this barbecue sauce.
The barbecue sauce is perfect to accompany meats and vegetables grilled. And it is not difficult to prepare it at home. If you have 20 minutes, you can prepare it yourself. It doesn't taste the same as the commercial one, but we don't think it's necessary either. By doing it you can control the ingredients you use, the quantities and customize it.
Homemade barbecue sauce
Homemade barbecue sauce is a great sauce to pair with grilled meats and vegetables. But also a good pasta dish.
