3/8 cup vinegar
1 1/2 cup tomato sauce. (1 15 oz can) Don't buy a tomato sauce that has spices or flavorings in it!
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 tablespoon yellow hot dog mustard
3/4 tablespoon Franks Hot Sauce (the chicken wing sauce)
3/4 tablespoon salt (optional)
1 dash cayenne pepper. Go easy!!!!
3 teaspoons lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
6 teaspoons Splenda or 18 drops of Liquid Splenda
Add vinegar and all other ingredients except mustard to a sauce pan and slowly heat. Put mustard in a cup and slowly stir in a couple tablespoons of sauce until well blended. Then add mustard mixture back to sauce in pan.
Bring to a boil, and lower heat. Let simmer for a few minutes. Let cool, then refrigerate.
Note: this sauce will taste a bit peculiar if you taste it when it is still hot. Don't worry! Something magical happens when it sits in the fridge.
Carbohydrates per Serving (1 tablespoon): Less than 1 gram. Half an ounce is 1 gm carbs, 6 calories.4 -

I make this one - my husband prefers it - but I always use a tomato sauce that does have spices added and it turns out OK (just in case you have difficult [or cost difficulty; this is my issue lol] with finding a tomato sauce without added spices! Muir Glen makes one without spices, but it is $2 per can more than the store brand that does have spices added. I just can't make my frugal self pull that trigger haha!!)
My favorite one is the Copycat Paula Deen SF BBQ Sauce from Up Late Anyway:
Gather- ¾ cup Heinz reduced sugar ketchup (192 grams)
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 1 ½ tablespoons Colgin mesquite liquid smoke
- ½ tsp xanthan gum (to thicken)
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¾ cup sugar equivalent. I used 4 ½ tsp truvia and ¼ tsp EZsweet. (technically that means it's ½ cup sugar equivalent plus 3.5 tablespoons, so it's just shy of ¾ cup however you can sweeten this to taste as well.)
Prepare- Combine ketchup, water, vinegar, worcestershire, lemon juice, mustard, and liquid smoke in a sauce pan over medium heat.
- Once the sauce starts to heat up add xanthan gum and whisk very quickly until all of the gum is incorporated.
- Add in spices and sweetener.
- Let cool and store in a squeeze bottle or jar.
Notes
**Update: I tried this with all Truvia last week and was very unhappy with the results. I recommend the measurements I have here for the two sweeteners or else using ALL liquid sweetener for this recipe.**

I have an allergy to mustard so I've always made my own barbecue sauce. Recipe similar to those posted, except sub some horseradish for the mustard and add a little smoked paprika or smoky chipotle . Something magical does happen after a few hour in the fridge!1

I've never been a fan of traditional BBQ sauce so I always used my mom's recipe which has oil, cider vinegar, an egg, salt, pepper and poultry seasoning. While I mainly use it for chicken, I have also used it as a marinade for steak and pork loin.
