With only 4 simple ingredients you can make your own honey barbecue sauce. It’s as easy as pouring everything into a saucepan and letting it simmer. My family uses this recipe on almost all of our barbecued meats. This portion is rather large, the reason being, you can store it in the refrigerator for later use. It’s always nice to have ready to use homemade barbecue sauce at home.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups ketchup
- 2/3 cup honey
- 2/3 cup molasses
- 2 tbsp liquid smoke
Instructions:
1. In a saucepan, combine ketchup, honey, molasses, and liquid smoke.
2. Heat the saucepan over medium-low and let the sauce simmer for about 1 hour. If not used the same day, store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

This is a great recipe. Tastes much better then store bought. My husband doesn’t like barbecue sauce but this one he was pouring over grilled ribs and shashlik. Never will buy barbecue sauce again.
