Summer Barbeque




Coffee Barbecue Sauce Recipe


1/2 cup brewed espresso or strong, dark
coffee
1 cup
ketchup

1/2 cup
cider vinegar

1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 onion, peeled and finely chopped, about 1 cup
2 cloves
garlic
, peeled and crushed
3 fresh hot chili peppers, such as jalapeno, or hotter if desired, seeded
2 tablespoons hot
dry mustard
mixed with 1 tablespoon warm water
2 tablespoons
Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons chili powder


Put all of the ingredients in a small pot, stir them together, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Lower the heat so the mixture is just simmering and let simmer for 20 minutes. Remove the pot form the heat, let the mixture cool, then puree it in a blender or food processor fitted with the steel blade.


The barbecue sauce can be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

UPDATE: This sauce is good for anytime you would use a traditional tomato based bbq sauce. Ribs, chops, chicken, dunk a nuggect, etc.
