bbq: I am making shredded chicken breast in a honey BBQ sauce, after I already purchased this sauce I realized it was a little sweeter than I'd like. Anything I can add to take away so much of the sweetness, or am I stuck? I am serving these on buns with cheese. Serious answers only, please.|||A quick and delicious fix is to add some cider or red wine vinegar. Some mustard to taste is a good solve too. Do not add catsup. It's full of sugar and will make it even sweeter Good luck, It sounds yummy!|||You could make your own BBQ sauce. You use tomato soup, powered mustard, onion, brown sugar, war sister sauce and garlic. You chop the onion and then you mix all the ingredients together (as much as you want of each) and then you can pour it over your chicken before you cook it!!|||I would add some catchup, little at a time while tasting as I go along, and add some worcestershire sauce, again while tasting until most of the sweetness is to your liking. |||You could try a little Worcestershire Sauce, just try a small portion first.|||You could try making your own. Here's a recipe. Best Barbecue Sauce 1 cup ketchup 1/2 cup chili sauce 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1 tablespoon liquid smoke 1. In 2-quart saucepan, heat all ingredients to boiling; reduce heat. 2. Simmer uncovered 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve warm sauce with grilled chicken, pork or beef. Experiment! Dark brown sugar instead of light, balsamic vinegar instead of cider, lime juice for lemon or ketchups with added flavor and kick. |||Just a little hot pepper sauce will help, just not too much obviously. Or if you have any other bbq sauce you can add it with it and let it cook for a while to thicken up. A smoky bbq sauce would be best. Another thing to try is liquid smoke. It will definitely get the sweet out. Just for future reference though, and I know this sounds different, but it is really really good. Try using a bottle of ketchup and one to one 1/2 cans of Coke. Put it in a crock-pot and just let it cook/simmer. It makes great bbq. |||Try this site - http://www.dummychef.com You may find some good recipes there.
