Ingredients

1 1/2 cup water
3 cup light corn syrup
1 cup tomato paste
1 1/2 cup white vinegar
1 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoon molasses
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 1/4 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon hickory smoke powder
1/2 teaspoon xantham gum

Directions

In a heavy-bottom stockpot, add in the all of the ingredients, except for the hickory smoke powder and xantham gum.
Bring to a boil and then turn down to a simmer — the sauce should slowly reduce over time. Simmer for 4 hours, stirring occasionally until so the bottom of the pot does not burn.
Taste for seasonings, the sauce should have a caramelized sweetness to it. Whisk in the hickory smoked powder and xantham gum. Carefully blend with a hand blender. Cool and reserve.
