Quantity Ingredient
2 tablespoons Butter Or Margarine
1 cup Chopped Onion
½ cup Chopped Celery With Leaves
¼ cup Chopped Green Pepper
1 tablespoon Minced Garlic
29 ounces Canned Whole Tomatoes, Drained And Coarsely Chopped
6 ounces Tomato Paste

3 tablespoons Molasses
2 Lemon Slices
2 teaspoons Tabasco Pepper Sauce
2 teaspoons Dry Mustard

½ teaspoon Ground Cloves
½ teaspoon Ground Allspice

Directions

This classic spicy barbecue sauce has a mellow, rich flavor that is marvelous with just about anything you'd care to grill. Serve additional sauce on the side.

In a heavy nonaluminum saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the onion, celery, pepper, and garlic for 5 minutes, or until the onion is tender but not browned. Add the remaining ingredients.

Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, until the sauce thickens, stirring occasionally. Discard the lemon slices and bay leaf. Brush the sauce on chicken, ribs, frankfurters, or hamburgers during grilling, broiling, or baking. Makes 2-¼ cup.
