8tablespoonscornstarch
4cupsketchup
4cupswater
3cupsGolden Eagle or Yellow Label syrup
2cupsapple cider vinegar
4tablespoonsWorcestershire sauce
2tablespoonswhite vinegar
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients. It is very important that you mix all of the dry ingredients together at once before adding them to the wet. If you don't add your cornstarch during this step, it will not dissolve later.
2 cups dark brown sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 3 tablespoons ground black pepper, 8 tablespoons cornstarch
In the pot you are going to cook in (I prefer a heavy dutch oven so it doesn't scorch), mix together all the wet ingredients. Then whisk in the dry mixture.
4 cups ketchup, 4 cups water, 3 cups Golden Eagle or Yellow Label syrup, 2 cups apple cider vinegar, 4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons white vinegar
Place over medium-high heat and stir constantly until it comes to a low boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring from time to time.
Allow to cool slightly and place in containers to store in the refrigerator until ready to use, or can in mason jars using the canning method mentioned in the post.
