If you like mustard -- this is a good sauce
to try. It will give you a completely different perspective on
barbecue.
Carolina Mustard Sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup minced onions
1 cup prepared yellow mustard
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon celery seeds
1 teaspoon salt
- Heat the oil in a medium-size nonreactive
saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until
translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients,
and blend them well. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce
the heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- How to use it: Mustard based sauces hail
from pork country--so pork is what I'd use this on first. Try
it as a finishing sauce for pork shoulder, painted on about 30
minutes before the end of the cooking time. Or try it on a pulled
pork sandwich. This sauce will keep for several weeks in an airtight
container in the refrigerator.
