Preparation

1. Combine Base Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and honey. Whisk together until smooth.

2. Add Spices and Seasonings

Add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt to the bowl. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined.

3. Adjust Heat Level

For medium heat, stir in the cayenne pepper and hot sauce. For hot, increase the amount of cayenne pepper to 1 teaspoon and hot sauce to 4 tablespoons. For mild, omit the cayenne and use just 1 tablespoon of hot sauce.

Cooking

4. Simmer the Sauce

Pour the sauce mixture into a saucepan and bring to a low simmer over medium heat. Allow it to simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. Cool and Store

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool. Once cooled, transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use.
