Traditional Kansas City Barbeque Sauce Recipe

This recipe uses fresh veggies, so while there's a bit more chopping and peeling than with the simpler recipe above, it's still totally easy. This recipe is for those who want a super rich, super sweet sauce. There's very little vinegar and no spice, so you won't get the tang you find with most barbeque sauce recipes.

Want a spicy, tangy sauce? Toss in some chili powder, crushed red pepper, and extra vinegar. The fun thing about making barbecue sauce is that you can do whatever you want with it.

Ingredients:
2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
1/2 C. onion, finely minced
1 tbsp. margarine or butter

1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1-2 tsp. liquid smoke
2 C. ketchup
1 C. beer
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 C. brown sugar, packed

Instructions: In a medium saucepan, cook garlic and onion til tender and translucent.
