start with some ketchupusually for a smaller batch I like useabout half a cup and I usually justeyeball it get right in just like thatand you can always add more as neededonce you taste away you’re cooking whichis always important taste what you’remaking now I like to add a good decentamount here Porchester steyr sauce justlike that probably about a tablespoonthen I’m gonna add about that much ofthe hot sauce as well just for a littleextra bite and kick just like so now Idon’t know who doesn’t love a sweetbarbecue sauce so I’m gonna add somebrown sugar right to that about equal tothe ketchup and I’m just gonna eyeballthis as well sprinkle that right in justlike sothen also I’ve already got some preparedbarbecue spice rub that I made myselfand I’ll post the ingredients recipes tothat right here on the side for youso I’m add a little taste of that rightthere on top of that I do like to add alittle bit of onion powder a littleadditional just like so just a pinch andalso a pinch of that garlic powder aswell just like so on top of that I amgonna add some seedless blackberry jamand it’s gonna give this a little moreof a unique barbecue flavor and thenyour traditional sauces just like thatthen last but not least I cannot forgetthe butter let me grab some here I likeusing unsalted butter and salting thetastesometimes that salted butter can just alittle bit too much saltlet me there cut off about threetablespoons nice and easy someone thoseguys could never find what he needs inthe kitchen especially is drying rightin my drying rackno dice that down just a little bitthere so it’s gonna melt a little biteasier once I throw this on the stovejust like so and who doesn’t love alittle bit of butter and abouteverything they make no we gotta getthis on the stovetop and get it cookingdown no once they have this on thestovetop we’re gonna crank it over thereto a low heat and while that’s meltingdown and doing this thing we’re not alittle bit of water to it Justin let itdone evaporate while it cooks down soyour sauce doesn’t get too thick now thekitchen is all about experimentation andmaking huge messes trust me on that onewell we got that going reducing down youcan tell what it might need whilelooking at it look in here looks like Imight add just a little more ketchup tothat about life so we’re gonna give it agood mix there as it starts to heat upjust get everything nice andincorporated together I always try tobreak down the jam I had just with thesplit the wooden spoon I’m stirring withnow be sure to go with the seedless jamif you’re trying this because I don’tknow what a folks are very hesitant toenjoy a blackberry seeds with in theirfood won’t let this go here for just aminute or so you’ll see that buttermelting down and usually I’ll let it gohere for about 30 minutes give or takenow the only way to know if it’s tastingright and working right is to give it ataste when it’s time you can see afterbeing on the heat for just a few minutesor so everything’s starting to cometogether nicely I’m gonna keep lettingthis go on the low heat until it gets toyour desired thickness the kitchen ismore of an hour than a sciencenow making your buffalo sauce is goingto be the easier of the two sauces we’regonna do firstI’ll put the rest of the butter from momwhat you use when the barbecue sauceinto a sauce into a sauce pan sauce potskillet anything and let it melt down ona very low heat you don’t want to burnthe butter you just want to get it niceand melted so once we get that melteddown straight just how easy it is tomake that restaurant style buffalo saucenow be sure to us stir your barbecuesauce every now and again you don’t wantanything sticking and burning to thebottom of the pan now I think right nowis a good point to give it a taste andsee what it needs grab a little bit justlike so stay some pretty good so far Ilet this keep going and give it anothertaste here in about another 15 minutesnow that our butter is melted we’regonna take it right off the heat thereand let it cool down pull about roomtemperature not a little higher thenI’ll show you the next stepnow that my butter is nice and coolawesome add that directly to the mixingbowl I’m gonna mix the drumsticks inright in just like that every littlelast trip there folks that should beenough now I go to this is simplesuper simple now we’re gonna add aboutan equal amount of our hot sauce sameone that we headed to our barbecuesquare some want that all glug-glug-glugright in therejust like so yeah we ready give it agood mix just like this get everythingnice and incorporated together all rightand once this good mix we’re gonna giveit a taste make sure it’s perfect for usthat’s good it’s been about 30 minutesand our barbecue sauce looks like it’sabout done the best way to tell is totake your stirring spoon to get a goodglug of it right on the end there andsee how well it sticksdid you see how it’s not sliding offimmediately and clinging very well tothe spoon that’s just about perfect soI’m gonna turn that right off the heatand let that cool down to roomtemperature now that our chicken hasbeen falling out here on the counterit’s almost ready to go so I’m gonna goahead and get this pan nice and oiled upthere with a nonstick spray of yourchoice just weren’t even a nice littlespray there make sure nothing goes intothat pan and we’re going to make
