Switch up your classic barbecue sauce with this flavorful recipe.

Ingredients

3 dried ancho chilies, stemmed, seeded
2 cups apple cider
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 cups diced onions
¼ cup finely chopped garlic
1 cup tomato sauce
½ cup Worcestershire sauce
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
¼ cup lemon juice
1 ½ tbsp. mustard
3 tsp. salt

Steps

  1. Combine cleaned chilies and apple cider in sauce pan. Bring to simmer and let sit for 45 minutes off of heat.
