Vinegar base BBQ sauce

[Ryan P.K.]

Here is the deal. I am looking for a thin vinegar base BBQ sauce. Its my nephew birthday this weekend, and I am cooking baby back ribs. Anybody have any good BBQ sauce receipt‘s?

This is my "go to" sauce. I found it somewhere on this site, so thanks to the original poster.

It has a good kick to it and plays well with most anything from the smoker.


Fat Johnny's Bastardized Piedmont Sauce

(an outstanding recipe by professional chef "Chez" John Eddy of Topeka, KS. Somewhat similar to Blues Hog Tennessee Red in some ways)

1 quart cider vinegar
12 oz Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 T red pepper flakes
2 T salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp celery seed
2 T Worcestershire sauce
Juice of one lemon
1 T chipotle powder
1 tsp dry mustard
1 T onion powder

Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10-15 minutes. Let cool, and bottle. Great with Carolina style pulled pork BBQ sandwiches.

Note: This has a little too much vinegar taste for my yankee family, so I cut it with SBR (50/50) and I cannot keep it around.

Ron, that looks like a fine recipe.
Ryan, I posted a simple classic one in the rub and sauce area. See Classic Lexington....
