Carolina Mustard BBQ Sauce

Ingredients

Sauce:
½ cup mustard
¼ cup honey
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
4 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp ketchup
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
½ tsp salt
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp liquid smoke
6 dashes hot sauce of your choice more or less depending on your desired level of heat

Slurry:
2 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp water room temperature

Directions

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water for slurry. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, add all the ingredients.

Whisk until the ingredients are well combined.

Using a rubber spatula, pour the mixture into a small saucepan.

Whisk often while simmering, on low heat, for 3 minutes (or just until it starts to bubble). Do not overheat or boil.

Add your slurry mix to the sauce and continue to cook for another 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and allow the sauce to cool. Once cool to touch, pour into a jar or container with a sealed lid.
Refrigerate overnight.

To serve, warm it up in a small pot.
