Copycat "McRib" Barbeque Sauce

This delicious barbeque sauce is the perfect topping for ribs, burgers, chicken or pork. This recipe was a bit of an accident as we tried to copycat another brand but boy oh boy what a wonderful taste it has. Sweet and smokey this sauce pairs with any meat or meat substitute you're making for dinner or on the barbeque. We use it to top meatloaf as well as in our Shepard's Pie and when I make our Barbeque Baked Beans
