Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup vidalia onions, chopped (or sweet onions)
- 2 cloves garlic, grated on a rasp or finely minced
- Kosher salt
- Freshly Ground Pepper
- 2 cups ketchup
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup orange juice
- ¼ cup sriracha hot chili sauce
- 3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
Preparation
Melt the butter in a medium pot over medium-low heat. Add the onion and garlic and season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook until both are tender but not browned, stirring frequently.
Add the ketchup, vinegar, orange juice, and sriracha. Bring to a boil, then add the brown sugar and stir until dissolved, about 2 more minutes. This should be a loose sauce. Refrigerate if not using right away.
