If you’re looking for the ultimate BBQ sauce, this is it. Sweet and tangy, this tomato-based barbecue sauce doesn’t use ketchup, has a hint of espresso, and adds a kick of chipotle, making it perfect for veggies, (veg) burgers, and everything else for the grill.
Balsamic-Espresso Barbecue Sauce
1 1/3 cups passata
1/2 cup traditional balsamic vinegar
4 teaspoons mild olive oil
2 teaspoons espresso powder
2 teaspoons brown mustard
1 small can (5.5oz/156mL) tomato paste
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1/4 plus 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Put all ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to medium heat, whisking until smooth, and let cook for about 15 minutes, until slightly thickened. Cool and store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
