I'm not sure where Bonne-Maman first came across this BBQ sauce recipe (possibly from a magazine clipping) but she's been making it for so long that it has become a family staple. The smell of this tangy sauce conjures memories of the backyard barbeques we used to have at her house in North Brunswick.Makes 1 cup (Serves 2)
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp mustard
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tsp lemon juice
1 large onion (sliced in half, then in thin half-rings)
1/4 cup salted butter
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Place the vinegar, water, sugar, mustard, salt, pepper, lemon juice, onion and butter in a small saucepan. Stir together and simmer uncovered on low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Bring back to a simmer and serve over grilled chicken. If you find the sauce to be too thick or too tangy, add a little more water to loosen it up and mellow the flavor.
