Vinegar based BBQ sauce

[Bbqallday80]

Does anyone have a vinegar based bbq sauce that’s like Rec tecs regular gourmet sauce? Would like to make but with less heat. I no it’s not that hot but the family does not like any heat. Thanks all.

I’m not a particular fan of vinegar-based BBQ sauce, but I do enjoy reverse-engineering recipes. Here are some thoughts on reverse-engineering a less-spicy version of the Recteq BBQ sauce found here: https://www.recteq.com/products/mild-gourmet-bbq-sauce

Recteq lists the ingredients (but not quantities of each) on their website. These are the ingredients for the sauce I think you want to duplicate, but with less heat: Vinegar, Water, Brown Sugar, Ketchup, Mustard, Onion Powder, Pepper, Salt, Garlic Powder and Cayenne Pepper. Eliminate the Cayenne pepper and you eliminate the heat your family doesn’t like.

Now, here’s a similar recipe with most of the same ingredients:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups apple cider vinegar
• 1 ½ cup water
• ½ cup ketchup
• ⅓ cup brown sugar
• 1 ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 Tablespoon red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Add

• 1/3 cup yellow mustard
• 1 teaspoon onion powder,
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Delete

• 1 Tablespoon red pepper flakes

I’m guessing you’ll be pretty close to what you are looking for. Adjust quantities to taste, as needed. Good luck.

Yes.

Other than making it from scratch.
