When spring and summer come around the corner, it means BBQ season is upon us. There is no better time to whip up a batch of this tangy, sweet, savoury BBQ sauce to brush all of those BBQ goodies coming off the grill.

Made with Sarson's Malt Vinegar, the sauce is full of rich, malty tones that make it the perfect partner to the char and smoke of fire cooking. It's ideal for serving over wings, ribs, fish, and vegetables - pretty much anything you love to barbecue.

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp Sarson's Malt Vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Sarson's Worcester Sauce
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 400g can chopped tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 85g brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • Salt and pepper, to season

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan and add the onion. Cook over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, until softened and a little coloured.
  2. Add the garlic and tomato paste. Stir and cook for a further 2 minutes or until the tomato paste has deepened in colour.
  3. Stir in the Sarson's Worcester Sauce and then pour in the chopped tomatoes followed by the sugar.
  4. Splash in the Sarson's Malt Vinegar and reduce to a low simmer. Cook for 20 - 30 minutes until thickened. For a smooth sauce, simply whizz the mixture in a food processor or with a hand blender until it has your desired consistency. Serve over wings, ribs, fish, vegetables - anything you love to barbecue. Enjoy!
