If you’re a total amateur when it comes to making homemade BBQ Sauce, don’t be deterred by that.  This super quick and easy recipe for the Best Homemade BBQ Sauce Ever is a great place for you to begin. And your kids can easily help make this too, depending on which parts of the preparation would be age appropriate for them to help with. This BBQ sauce is slightly sweet, but it can be easily made more spicy by adjusting the amount of cayenne. It’s even better if you make it a couple days in advance, so it has a chance to “rest” and further enhance its flavor.

My palate tends to lean more towards slightly spicy and smokey flavors, so if yours does too, you’ll want to try this Slightly Smokey BBQ Sauce. It’s recipe includes ingredients like cumin, molasses, worcestershire sauce and cider vinegar, which all contribute to giving it a bit more depth and a mild smokey flavor.
