Want a finger licking BBQ sauce that no one else has?
I have been cooking for over 50 years and have always shared any recipe except this one.
Actually it is not a complete recipe because everyone has their own favorite BBQ sauce but these are 2 ingredients that will set your tomato based sauce apart from all others. (rubs also)
Asafoetida and
Real Wasabi powder
You have to be careful with both of these as they are powerful. Asafoetida is called "Devils Dung" in several languages but don't let that scare you. Asafoetida can be bought in Indian groceries or ordered online. I add less than 1/4 tsp per quart of sauce and let it set for 24 hours. Start low and add until you get the taste that you like.
Real Wasabi powder (Wasabi japonica) not the fake Wasabi sold in most stores. I use 1/2 tsp per quart of sauce.
The real Wasabi can be bought here for a reasonable price:

Pendry's not Penzy's--Pendry's is the real stuff.
Bon appetit fellow smoke hounds. Let me know how you like it.
