This sauce is good on just about everything barbecued or roasted. My wife loves this on my barbecued brisket, pulled pork, or smoked or roast chicken. Its different. It has a hint of an Asian flavor to it from the soy, black bean sauce, garlic, and ginger. It has a sweetness from the vanilla coffee and the molasses. And the peppers add depth and character to it. If you're missing the heat, throw in a handful of dried chile de arbol in to re-hydrate. See what happens then.For more smoke, throw in some reconstituted chipotle peppers, too.

How To Make a different kind of barbecue sauce

Step 1

Bring enough water to cover your dried peppers to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, add peppers and cover. Re-hydrate your peppers in hot water for at least 30 minutes. Remove stem, seeds and membranes. Then process either in a food mill or blender until smooth.

Step 2

Combine everything in a medium sauce pan and heat over medium/low heat for no less than25-30 minutes. This will give it a chance for the flavors to meld together. It will also allow it to reduce, making it a bit thicker. Reduce heat if it begins to boil.
