Buying barbecue sauce at the store is convenient, but making your own classic, Kansas City-style sauce at home is surprisingly fast, and easy. Above and beyond avoiding all kinds of artificial ingredients, you can customize the flavors to your tastes, and in just minutes, produce a sauce just as good, if not better than that stuff from the grocery store.

Best bbq sauce ever. Perfect balance 👍
I need a sauce so we’ll made I’ll eat it with a spoon
just made this sauce for my bbq, i added 50% less vinegar and it was delicious. So balanced and delicious and just the right amount of spice added. I smoked the sauce with the pork to give it some extra flavour.
No the best way to test bbq sauce is sliced charred pork tenderloin
Hope you don't mind…. jarred & relabeled "Judy's BBQ Sause"…. 🙃
guess it might be easier to make a batch that fits in the ketchup bottle, & change the label keep it in there for the BBQ season. I have some Nate's honey I'd love to try & add to this recipe.
is sugar solved?🧐
Chef John, I have made this barbecue sauce a handful of time just in the last month, yep we love your recipe and bbq anything 😊. Each time I have made it I add garlic powder and onion powder. Tonight I'm going to make it again and I'm going to follow your recipe without the garlic and onion powder and see how it tastes on the slow cooked ribs:)
I love how you mention your viewers are not average! 😂. I am here because I do not want corn syrup in my sauce!
What no cayenne!!!
Great cooking channel Chef but please don't start a singing channel.
Thank you so much for this recipe. Indeed I won't buy any BBQ sauce from the shop anymore. Your brilliant recipe saved me from spending money on those unhealthy store bought bbq sauces.
How long does it keep
Add some Habanero powder. It has some heat
way too sweet…
Could a person substitute honey for the molasses?
Plus some Wright's Hickory Liquid Smoke. Not the other brands. Wrights is 100% smoke concentrate.
I had leftover S&P ribs, so threw on some of this sauce. Wrapped in the foil I cooked them in. About 30 minutes in the oven. Indescribably good.
I'm canning beef and needed a nice sauce, wow! This is perfect! Thank you!
You never give ingredient measurements.
