What Is Carolina Mustard Barbecue Sauce?

Mustard in barbecue sauce? Oh, yes! This Carolina mustard barbecue sauce recipe is my most delicious barbecue sauce recipe yet!

If you are used to tomato based barbecue sauce, you aren’t alone. Most folks don’t think about mustard when they think of barbecue sauce. But I’m here to tell you, it’s fabulous.

History

Interestingly enough, this sauce is not technically an American sauce, although it was traced back to German settlers in the 18th century here in the States. Germany love their mustard to this day. The 18th century was no different.

What Does Carolina Mustard BBQ Sauce Taste Like?

It’s pretty spice and simultaneously sweet. Almost like a spicy honey mustard dressing with a hint of chipotle.

All the ingredients for this Carolina Mustard Barbecue Sauce Recipe, in a white mixing bowl, waiting to be whisked together.

What You’ll Need

1 cup yellow mustard – Look for mustard without any added sugar. Many brands add sugar.

½ cup maple syrup – Use the real stuff. Substitutes will make this sauce somewhat lackluster.

2 tbsp. coconut sugar – You can also use Sucanat or Monk fruit. Any granular sweetener you usually use will work here.

½ cup apple cider vinegar – Don’t substitute with a different type of vinegar. Apple cider vinegar really makes the sauce.

1 tsp. ground chipotle powder – While this does add a fair amount of spice, it won’t overpower the sauce. The flavor is mild and well balanced.

1 tbsp. tomato paste – Use tomato paste without any sugar added.

1 tsp. coconut aminos – You can also use soy sauce if you prefer.

1 tbsp. garlic powder – Garlic granules work well too.

1 tsp. ground black pepper – White pepper will work too. Use what you have. If you are worried about the amount of spice, cut the pepper in half or omit it completely.

¼ tsp. salt – I used pink Himalayan salt, but use whatever salt you normally cook with.

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy ge...

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this pr...
