Cook Time: 45 min.
Keywords: BBQ sauce Dr. Pepper Chipotle summer
This amazing BBQ sauce has all the sweet and savory qualities and a little smokiness from the chipotle.
Ingredients (4 cups)
1 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 can (12 oz.) plus 3/4 cup Dr. Pepper (2-1/4 cups total) You could also use Cherry Cola
1 12 oz. bottle chili sauce
1 cup black cherry preserves
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
3 Tbsp. molasses
3 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp. minced chipotle in adobo sauce (you can add more if you like)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Sweat onion and garlic in oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, 5-7 minutes. Add Dr. Pepper, chili sauce, preserves, vinegar, brown sugar, molasses, Worcestershire, lemon juice and chipotle; cook until thick and reduced to 4 cups, about 30 to 40 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. The sauce will be a little chunky. If you would rather have a smoother sauce, process in a blender to puree it.
Recipe for the Rub:
Classic BBQ Rub
1-1/2 tsp. sweet paprika
1 tsp. kosher salt
3/4 tsp. garlic powder
3/4 tsp. light brown sugar
1/2 tsp. chili powder
