Momma's & Daddy's Barbecue Sauce
1 #10 can Catsup - (about 12 cups) 1 ts Louisiana Hot sauce
12 c Water 1 c Brown sugar
6 ts Celery salt 1 c Worcestershire sauce
1 Head garlic -- peeled and 6 tb Fresh lemon juice
Crushed Zest from the lemons
6 ts Salt 3 tb Apple cider vinegar
2 ts Ground black pepper
Combine ingredients, stirring to blend. Simmer for about an hour before
using or canning to allow it to thicken. Charcoal broil or cook in a pit
meat or chicken until done. Cover with sauce and keep warm until ready to
serve. Is best if meat can marinate for at least 30 minutes before
serving.
Note: You can get pretty comparable results from a Weber grill and
mesquite chips, as Bill's Barbecue was always smoked with mequite. Daddy
always said that you had to use Lea and Perrins Worcestershire Sauce --
other brands made the sauce taste funny. This recipe made my parents a fine
living for many years before they retired, in the highly competitive world
of Texas Barbecue. Rosilyn H. Overton
