🍳 Instructions
- Combine beef broth, tomato sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire, and sweetener in a saucepan. Whisk.
- Add all spices and stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer 20-25 minutes.
- The sauce should be thinner than KC style -- more of a mop or finishing sauce.
- Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
- Let cool and refrigerate.
🌍 Origin & History
Texas BBQ sauce is a mop, not a glaze -- meant to baste and complement beef, not smother it. German and Czech immigrants who settled Central Texas in the 1800s brought vinegar-based cooking traditions that evolved into thin, spicy, beef-forward sauce.
