Home Made BBQ Sauce Recipe: Something You Must Cook This Week!

in #food7 years ago

If you follow @exyle you might have seen his last cooking video, where he shows our last meal, lots of yummy stuff straight from the green egg and our kitchen.
Today he made roasted porked, and to serve with it, I made a homemade BBQ sauce totally freestyling, but it turned out sooo freaking good I'm going to share with you guys the recipe.

As you know, we are on a diet and we've been checking in the gym almost every day. Today he found out he needs to start adding more carbs and more protein to his diet, so we decided eating this:

To be honest I don't know how healthy it is, but it does feel pretty fine to me. Morning and afternon, our meals are quite clean and balanced, but in the evening we eat a bigger portion.

Ok, now let's get it started. To this amazing BBQ Sauce I made, I needed:

  • 2 medium sliced onions,
  • 1 tablespoon of cooking butter
  • 1 tablespoon of canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon of mustard dijon
  • 5 garlic cloves,
  • 1 tablespoon of brown sugar,
  • 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
  • 6 tomatoes
  • a small dose of cachaça or whisky
  • black pepper
  • salt

First in a pan, I added the butter and canola oil, when hot I added onions, sauté'd till it gets transperent and then added cachaça and the brown sugar. Two minutes later I added chopped garlic on it - by now the smell is heaven. More three minutes and then I added cube chopped tomatoes with seeds, I don't really mind it, you can't take it off if you want. Let it cook low medium heat and stir now and then for about 8 minutes. If you think it's getting too thick, add some water. Now you can add salt, black pepper and the balsamic. Let it cook more 5 minutes low heat now and there it goes.

one more photo, please!


I love the result! It went tremendously delicious with the pork, sauté potatoes and some salad. I just have to confess I have never done it before. It was totally freestyling as I said, and I just expected it to be good. And it was! It's something I'm definetly cooking again and serve to friends next time they are over.

Now, as you can see it's a bit hard to lose weight living with @exyle, we are both food lovers! :)
But summer is almost gone, so we had to enjoy eating and cooking outside while we can, and I think there's nothing wrong in that, is there?

Thank you for reading,

Sounds delicious! Some of the best sauces are made just free styling as this is how my wife likes to cook. It's crazy how it works out that way. I had plans to grill some chicken in the next couple of days, I'm excited to give it a try. Thank you very much!!

Freestyling is the best 👍I'd love to know how it goes with the chicken, please let me know. Thanks!!

It was great! Perfect with the pork!

Thanks babe. We did a great job today :*
