For me, sunny Sunday afternoons have always screamed barbecue. So after finding some burger patties in the fridge, I thought I would make some barbecue burgers, brazed with Mamma Jane's super barbecue sauce. Here is the recipe for the sauce, use it on anything you wish. I promise it will be delicious. The making of this sauce is quite an art. It is like making soup, constantly tasting and mixing around ingredients. Most of the measurements were eyeballed and adjusted, but I did my best to quantify a "pinch".
Ingredients
Onion
1 1/2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 Cup Water
1 1/2 Cup Ketchup
1/2 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
2 Tablespoons worcestershire sauce
Tablespoon of spicy mustard
Tablespoon of dijon mustard
Dash of Tabasco sauce
Minced Garlic to taste
Tablespoon of Parsley
1/8 Teaspoon of Lavender
1/8 Teaspoon of Mustard Seed
Pinch of Lemon Grass
1/4 Teaspoon of Thyme
Kosher Salt to taste
2 Tablespoons of Honey
1/4 Cup Apricot Preserves
1/4 Cup Plum Cherry Preserves
Chopped Basil
**Note: All spices were put in to taste and you may use whatever preserves you like, if any at all.
Instructions
Chop onion and place in sauce pan. Sauté chopped Onion in olive oil. Slowly add the rest of the ingredients listed in the order above while stirring the mixture in medium heat. Let the mixture cool and blend in a food processor until fine texture.
