I just followed a recipe in the paper today for BBQ sauce and it's coming out too sweet. I tried adding more tabasco but it's still too sweet. What can I add to take some sweetness away?
Ingredients are: Brown sugar, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, onion, garlic, chili powder, tabasco, worchester sauce, water, canola oil...I think that was it (going from memory). Thanks!|||Cut it with a little more apple cider vinegar and Worchestershire. . .that will add more tartness and cut down on the sweet taste. Stay away from adding too much Tobasco because the end result is apt to be a sweet sauce that still rips your stomach out and hands it to you.

If you have paprika, try adding some of that to the recipe, too. It adds just enough heat to counteract the sweetness without being overpowering.|||more cider or vinegar tart|||I would add a little lemon juice.|||The brown sugar and the ketchup will add sweet to your sauce. Maybe use half or less of the brown sugar and see if that helps. Or just use the ketchup and leave the brown sugar out all together.|||More vinegar, a little mustard
