Sweet and Tangy BBQ Sauce is our go to for most things on the grill but we do love to mix it up with Pineapple BBQ Sauce and readers say our Orange BBQ Sauce should come with a warning label for being so irresistible.
We are grilling most nights of the week and having homemade sauces makes it easy to switch up the flavors for everything from burgers to pork chops.
We were met with a bit of skepticism over Blackberry BBQ Sauce. Once everyone bit into the Blackberry BBQ Ribs, they were hooked!
Ingredients Needed
- Blackberry All Fruit ~ Found in the jam and jelly isle. It is a seedless blackberry spread. We used Pollaner brand and I’ve also seen a Smucker’s variety as well.
- V8 Juice
- Dark Brown Sugar
- Worcestershire Sauce
- Apple Cider Vinegar
- Granulated Garlic
- Smoked Paprika
Step By Step Directions
Add blackberry all fruit, V8 juice, brown sugar, Worcestershire Sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic and smoked paprika to a saucepan.
Cook over medium heat, whisking until mixture is well combined. Stir occasionally, cooking until mixture comes to a boil. Lower to simmer for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and set aside to cool to room temperature or pour into jars for storage.
The blackberry bbq sauce will be really thin when it is hot but will thicken as it cools.
