Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup No Sugar Added Ketchup
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1 tsp Chicken Better than Bouillon I'm using the paste
- 1/3 cup Keto Brown Sugar Replacement
- 2 tbsp Sriracha Sauce or Hot Sauce
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Liquid Smoke I'm using Hickory
- 1/8 tsp Xanthan Gum this is just a dash of to thicken the sauce
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients for the bbq sauce to a small sauce pan on medium heat
- Use a silicone bottom whisk to combine the ingredients
- Cook the sauce for 8-10 minutes - it should be slightly looser than bottled bbq sauce since it will continue to thicken as it cools. I stir it intermittently.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool

Notes
- Do not rush the simmer: A few minutes on the stove helps the flavors blend and gives the sauce a better texture.
- Use an unsweetened ketchup you enjoy: No sugar added ketchups can vary a bit in sweetness and tang, so that choice can slightly change the finished sauce.
- Go easy on liquid smoke: It is strong, so a little goes a long way.
- Adjust the heat to your taste: Add a little more sriracha, cayenne, or black pepper if you want more kick.
