This classic barbecue sauce is so flavourful you won't even realize that it has no added salt. It's great for pork, chicken or beef.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1 can pineapple tidbits, drained
  • 1/3 cup cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup cooking molasses
  • 3 tbsp packed brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder or chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Preparation

In large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; fry onion, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 10 minutes.

Add garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add tomatoes, pineapple, vinegar, molasses, brown sugar, tomato paste, mustard, paprika, oregano, chili powder and pepper; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 2 hours or until thickened. Let cool slightly.

In blender, puree sauce, in batches, until smooth. (Make-ahead: Let cool completely. Refrigerate in airtight containers for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 2 months.)
