For a smokier flavor, add 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika to the sauce. If you prefer a sweeter sauce, increase the brown sugar to 1 1/4 cups. Store the cooled BBQ sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Feel free to experiment with different types of vinegar, such as white wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar, to create your own unique flavor profile. This sauce is also delicious as a marinade for chicken or ribs. Marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
