Sweet Barbecue Sauce

Barbecue season will soon be upon us.  Most barbecue sauces are loaded with high fructose corn syrup and other unhealthy sweeteners.  I've been trying to come up with an Advanced Plan and Core Plan version that tastes as good as the sugary ones.  Give this one a try at your next barbecue. My very picky family loved it!

7 oz. organic tomato paste

7 oz. filtered water

2 1/2 T rice vinegar 

2 T Coconut liquid aminos *

1/4 tsp. ground celery seed

3/4 tsp. sea salt

1 tsp. chili powder

1/4 tsp hot pepper sauce

1/2 tsp. stevia (adjust to personal sweetness preference)

Heat in a small saucepan.  Brush on meat the last few minutes of baking or grilling.  Cook for a few minutes,

flip, and then brush the other side of the meat before baking for a few more minutes.  Serve with extra sauce.

*Coconut liquid aminos are available at most health-food stores, including Nature's Corner.  It can also be ordered through Amazon.

This barbecue sauce also works well for an Advanced Plan catsup replacement
