Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • ¾ cup chopped yellow onion

  • 2 tablespoons chopped garlic

  • 4 cups ketchup

  • ½ cup packed dark-brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons cane syrup

  • ½ cup cider vinegar

  • ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce

  • 3 tablespoons red hot sauce

  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard

  • 2 tablespoons Creole Seasoning

  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper, or more to taste

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add all the remaining ingredients, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have married, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
