Long list of ingredients but not at all hard to make and totally worth the effort.

I needed some bbq sauce and didn't have any bottled and didn't have any regular tomato sauce but I did have paste - so I tried this. It's a very good recipe. Lots of ingredients but very little work. I still prefer the ease of opening a bottle of bbq sauce of course but if you want to make it from scratch I would recommend this recipe.
