Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups ketchup
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 Tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 Tbsp paprika
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp coarse kosher salt
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- ¼ tsp chili powder
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a medium saucepan and stir to combine.
- Set the heat to medium-low and bring the sauce to a gentle boil, stirring often so it doesn't stick to the bottom.

- Remove from heat and let it cool. Store covered in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
Storage: Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
