Whole30 BBQ Sauce
Ingredients
- 3/4 cups balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- (1) 6-ounce can tomato paste
- 8 pitted medjool dates
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Heat a sauce pan over medium low heat. Add all ingredients, stir to combine, and bring to a low simmer for 5 minutes. You don’t want it to boil, just get warmed through. Heating will allow the flavors to marry and soften the dates.
- Transfer the BBQ sauce to a blender, and blend on high speed for 2 minutes. (Careful blending warm liquids in blenders! I love my Vitamix, it can blend hot liquid without issue.)
- I like my bbq sauce thick so it really sticks to the meat I grill. If you like yours thinner, add water and blend until desired consistency is reached.
- Transfer to an airtight container. Will keep in the fridge for at least 4 weeks.
- You can transfer the sauce to wide mouth pint size mason jars, cool to room temperature, and then freeze for at least a year.
