A delightful homemade barbecue sauce with a smoky and sweet flavor profile.
Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Stir continuously to ensure the sugar dissolves evenly.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Allow the sauce to cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container.
Letting the sauce rest overnight enhances the flavor.
