Notes

Always check labels for gluten when purchasing ingredients, especially ketchup and vinegar. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks, or freeze in portions for longer storage. For added complexity, a splash of liquid smoke can enhance the barbecue flavor. Experiment with different vinegars or spices to make the sauce your own.
