Kelley Simmons Kelley’s Tips

Before You Get Started

  • Choose the right barbecue sauce. I recommend using a smoky, slightly sweet BBQ sauce. Avoid anything too spicy or vinegary.
  • Adjust the sauce to taste. After you make it, taste it! Like it sweeter? Add a bit more honey. Want more tang? Add extra mustard.
  • Make it ahead. This sauce keeps well in the fridge for up to a week when stored in an airtight container.
