Back in the days before blogging, we owned a small barbecue sauce company. Creating new sauces was our favorite part of the business and we still enjoy creating new flavor combinations. Our Orange BBQ Sauce was a big hit with our family and we will be making it again and again.

Best Tools for Making BBQ Sauce:
A heavy sauce pan is what we prefer for making small batches of sauce.
This set of measuring cups and spoons is super handy.
A flat whisk is super handy for getting the ingredients mixed well.

What are the measurements? Looks like a good sauce if we knew what to put in it.

I made this but used whole jar of orange marmalade, subbed orange juice for the pineapple, and subbed freshly grated ginger for the rosemary. Most delicious

Is this gluten free?
Milisa
Hi Victor,
If you use gluten free worcestershire sauce, it should be.

Have you tried canning it for later uses?
Milisa
Hi Pam,
We haven't tried canning it but it keeps really well in the refrigerator if you don't use it all at once.
