Preparation

1. Combine Base Ingredients

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the tomato sauce, ketchup, and apple cider vinegar. Stir well until fully blended.

2. Add Spices and Seasonings

Add the brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to ensure all spices are evenly distributed.

3. Incorporate Liquid Ingredients

Pour in the Worcestershire sauce and honey. Stir the mixture until everything is completely combined and smooth.

Cooking

4. Simmer the Sauce

Transfer the sauce to a medium saucepan and place it over medium heat. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
