0 mins Serves 4

A straightforward and spicy vinegar-based BBQ sauce with brown sugar and red pepper flakes, requiring no cooking.

Ingredients

Scale: 1x
  • 1 cup Cider vinegar
  • 0.125 cup Brown sugar, dark
  • 1 tablespoon Sea salt
  • 2 teaspoons Red pepper, crushed
  • 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients (cider vinegar, dark brown sugar, sea salt, crushed red pepper, cayenne pepper) in a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
  2. Shake the jar vigorously until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved.
  3. Let the sauce rest for at least 30 minutes (or preferably longer) at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld before using.
  4. Shake well again before serving.

Tips

This is a classic, simple Carolina-style vinegar sauce. Adjust the crushed red pepper and cayenne for your desired heat level. It's great for mopping pork or as a finishing sauce.
