Notes
TOP TIP: Taste your ketchup before you use it. If it is very vinegary, reduce the amount of vinegar you use in your BBQ sauce.
STORAGE: Once cooled, transfer the sauce to an airtight container, such as a glass jar or plastic container, and refrigerate it. Use within 1 week.
It can also be frozen in suitable freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months.
