Ingredients

  • 1 can (6 oz) tomato paste
  • 1/3 cup bourbon
  • 2 tablespoons vinegar
  • 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 1 teaspoon kosher (coarse) salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps

    In 1-quart saucepan, mix all ingredients. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with whisk, until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; continue cooking and stirring until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Transfer to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
