Mop Sauce
BBQ Mop Sauce is a quick and easy sauce to use for a marinade and to mop over pork, chicken or beef as you grill it. It’s a thin, vinegar based sauce that adds amazing flavor and helps tenderize the meat.
Sweet and Tangy BBQ Sauce is our favorite for a thick, sweet and sticky grilling sauce but sometimes we want a more savory sauce that lets the flavor of the meat shine through.

What is Real Cane Syrup?
Cane syrup is boiled sugar cane juice and molasses is what you get when the sugar granules are removed to make granulated sugar. It’s not quite as sweet as molasses but has the same flavor profile.
We found pure cane syrup in the local grocery store (find it on Amazon) in the jelly isle. It is great for grilling marinades and bbq sauce.

- In a saucepan, add real cane syrup, V8 juice, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, spicy brown mustard and hot sauce.
- Whisk together and cook over medium heat until sauce comes to a low boil. Cook about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks. Stir before using.
Uses for BBQ Mop Sauce:
- Best Marinated Pork Chops ~ For the most tender, juicy and flavorful pork chops, marinate in bbq mop sauce. Then as the pork chops are grilled they are mopped with sauce to create a wonderful glaze that perfectly compliments the smoky pork.
- Grilled Spare Ribs with Mop Sauce ~ One of the best rib recipes that we’ve ever made. We marinated the spare ribs and then grilled until tender, using the bbq mop sauce to glaze the ribs over indirect heat.
