For a smoky flavor, add a few drops of liquid smoke to the sauce. This sauce is also delicious on chicken, ribs, and pulled pork. Try using smoked paprika instead of dry mustard for a deeper, richer flavor.
This tangy and savory BBQ sauce elevates any grilled steak to a gourmet experience. The umami-rich tamari and subtle heat of white pepper create a complex flavor profile that perfectly complements the smoky char of the grill.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, tamari, dry mustard, and white pepper until thoroughly combined. (Approximately 1 minute)
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. For a sweeter sauce, add a touch of brown sugar or honey. For more heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper. (Approximately 1 minute)
Use immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
