  • 10 drops stevia extract
  • freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Start by making my low-carb ketchup.
  • Peel and crush the garlic.
  • Place everything into a saucepan: the ketchup, butter, garlic, coconut aminos, vinegar, smoked salt, cacao powder, paprika, chili powder, Erythritol and stevia.
  • Cover with a lid, cook for 5-10 minutes over a medium heat.
  • When done, take off the heat.
  • You can adjust the spiciness by using either mild or extra hot chili powder.
  • Coconut aminos is a healthier alternative to soy sauce and is recommended as a healthy substitute on paleo diets.
  • You can use any vinegar you like such as apple cider or white or red wine vinegar or even try making your own fruit vinegar.
  • Transfer in a glass jar and keep in the fridge up to a month or preserve for longer (water-bath canning works best).
  • Done - it's ready to be served! Try with BBQ Pork Ribs and don't forget to also check out my Blackberry BBQ Sauce!
