This is the sauce that my dad would use to baste his ribs while he smoked them. The sauce is a little unusual as it isn't cooked, as such I prefer to make it a day or two ahead to allow the flavor to blend.
Mix in a blender:
1 onion
2 cloves garlic
1 large can tomato sauce
1/4 C brown sugar
2 T vegetable oil
1 T lemon juice
1/8 t cayenne
1 T Worcestershire sauce
2 T cider vinegar
1 t liquid smoke
black pepper
salt
Tobasco
To be added after blending:
bay leaf
2 dried red chiles
