Make sure you have the following ingredients at hand:

Making The Sauce

This part is super easy, no worries if you’ve never made a BBQ sauce before. In fact, there are only two steps!

Step One: In a small/medium-sized bowl, whisk together all the required ingredients.

Step Two: Let the sauce cool in the refrigerator for at least an hour for maximum flavor infusion.

Now let’s shake things up a bit and talk about some substitutions and variations you can make to this primal BBQ sauce recipe.

First off, if you prefer a sweeter BBQ sauce, try using honey instead of maple syrup. It will add a slightly different flavor profile to the sauce, with a beautiful golden color.

If you’re on a low-carb or keto-friendly diet, substitute Heinz ketchup with sugar-free ketchup to reduce the carb count. You can also mix the BBQ sauce with some ranch dressing for a tangy and creamy flavor.

For a delicious steak sauce, simply reduce the amount of vinegar added and increase the Worcestershire sauce. You’ll end up with a dark and savory sauce that brings out the best in grilled beef.

If you’re looking for more heat, add more pepper and paprika to give your BBQ sauce some kick. On the other hand, if you prefer mild flavors, decrease these spices and add some onion powder.

You can also get creative with this recipe by adding different types of mustard or tamari to change up the flavor. Experiment with different ratios until you find what works for your taste buds.

Lastly, for a Hawaiian-style BBQ sauce, add pineapple juice instead of apple cider vinegar and increase the amount of tamari added. It’s sure to transport your taste buds straight to the beaches of Hawaii!

Overall, this primal BBQ sauce recipe is extremely versatile and welcomes creativity. Play around with substitutions and variations until you find your perfect blend!

One ideal pairing for this sauce is with pulled pork. The tangy and sweet flavors complement the smoky taste of the meat, creating a perfect match. The best way to serve the pulled pork with this sauce is to toss the meat in the sauce before serving or simply drizzle it over the top.

Another great pairing for this sauce is with steak. Whether you prefer your steak cooked rare or well-done, adding some of Jones’ BBQ sauce can take your dish to a whole new level.

If you’re planning on having a big BBQ feast, then you’re going to want to make sure that your Primal BBQ Sauce is ready to go before the day of the event. The good news is that this recipe can be easily made ahead of time and stored for later use.

Once the sauce has been cooked, allow it to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. The sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, but be sure to give it a good stir or shake before using it again.

If you have any leftover sauce that you don’t think you’ll be able to use before it goes bad, then consider freezing it instead. The sauce can be frozen for up to six months, which means that you’ll have plenty of time to use it up.

When it comes time to reheat the Primal BBQ Sauce, simply add it to a small pot and warm it over low heat. Be sure not to boil the sauce as this can cause it to become too thick and lose its flavor.

By making your Primal BBQ Sauce ahead of time, storing it correctly, and reheating it properly, you’ll be able to enjoy delicious, homemade BBQ sauce anytime you want without having to start from scratch every time.

When it comes to preparing the perfect BBQ sauce, there are a few things to keep in mind for best results. As an assistant to a seasoned BBQ chef, I have learned a few tips and tricks that help me achieve great outcomes every time. Here are some of the top tips that you should consider when making Jones’ Primal BBQ Sauce Recipe.

Firstly, remember that the sauce needs time to meld together for optimal flavor. While it may be tempting to serve it as soon as possible, taking the extra time to let the flavors mingle can really make a difference in taste. Allow the sauce to rest in the fridge for at least a couple of hours before using it.

Another critical tip is to use high-quality ingredients. Since each component of the sauce is important to its overall flavor profile, it’s essential not to skimp on quality any step of the way. Using organic unsweetened ketchup like Primal Kitchen Organic Unsweetened Ketchup can elevate the quality of your homemade sauce compared with using a low-quality one from your grocery store’s shelves.

A common mistake many people make is assuming there’s no need to monitor their BBQ sauce as it simmers on the stove. What they fail to realize is too much heat or reduced liquid will affect the quality and taste of their sauce. Reduce heat towards the end and keep a careful eye on your sauce every five minutes or so.

Lastly, consider adjusting spice levels according to your taste preference when making this recipe. If you’re new to using spices or prefer mild flavors, start by adding minimal amounts and adjusting after tasting until you achieve your desired level of spiciness.

By following these tips, you’ll end up with flavorful and well-balanced Jones’ Primal BBQ Sauce Recipe that will sure impress at your next backyard party or family dinner!

This sauce is a perfect balance between tangy and sweet flavors that will surely take your BBQ game to the next level.
