Closer we step. The two portions on the left are the jar'd sauce and the two on the right are my sauce. It isn't all that tough making your own sauce. One just needs to choose a base. Such as tomato sauce. Add some molasses/honey to sweeten a bit. Dice up some fresh herbies such as rosemary and/or oregano. Smoosh up a lot of fresh garlic and some onion (maybe the dried flakes for the garlic). Never ever used powdered garlic, nasty crap. Juice from two lemons really dials it in with some worcestershire sauce and maybe a load of the dry rub you used from the ribs. Beer helps too. But watch it, you don't want the sauce too runny.
