Homemade BBQ Sauce-(conventional BBQ sauce has added preservatives, refined sugar and high fructose corn syrup, MSG, artificial colorings, and sodium)
Ingredients:
• 1/2 cup xylitol syrup – see below
• 8oz organic tomato sauce or tomato paste
• 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (Braggs)

• 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Make the xylitol syrup first (below). Measure out about 1/2
cup and save the remainder for another use. Mix the rest of the
ingredients in a bowl until well combined. Add 1/8 – 1/4 cup of
filtered water to get the sauce to the desired consistency. Use over
chicken, as a steak sauce, on bbq chicken pizza (grain-free
crust), etc.
