Excellent recipe. Bringing sauce to a boil and simmering for 1 hour 15 minutes is a must. My sauce thickened to a bottled sauce consistency. I usually use Sweet Baby Ray's, but I like making my own now. With one batch I can separate into 2 or 3 bowls and customize, making 1 more sweet, one with more heat, one with more vinegar. This is a well thought out and tested recipe. Take this base and make it your own.
