F-16 Afterburner Hot Sauce
4 cup ketchup
1 1/2 cup molasses
1/4 cup vinegar
2 Tbsp Tabasco
3 Tbsp Worcestershire
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 cup chopped onion
3 cloves chopped garlic
1/4 cup brown sugar
1-3 tsp cayenne
3 Tbsp dry mustard (or 1 Tbsp ginger)
1-3 cups water
Mix everything in a large, heavy saucepan. Add water as needed to create a
sauce with a cream-like texture. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Reduce heat, partially cover and simmer VERY GENTLY for 1 hour. Stir
frequently. Add water if it gets too thick. This sauce freezes well in
mason jars. Use as a base flavoring for chili, sloppy joes, dip for wings
or barbecue sauce. It is easily modified to accommodate individual heat
preferences.
