Why the Hell Would You Do This to Yourself?
Who knows why you’d want to make this, you sick bastard, but join the club. Back in the day, much like my addiction to white trash standards Miracle Whip, Bullseye BBQ sauce, and Spaghetti-O’s, I also loved to dip a McNugget or six into those little McDonalds BBQ Sauce buckets. And back then, as if pondering something important like the Grand Canyon, or StoneHenge, or even MeatHenge… I remember thinking, “How do they make this stuff?”

Many home-made BBQ sauces are made with a base of vinegar or ketchup… along with some spices and sweeteners. What makes this recipe unique is that it substitutes tomato sauce and tomato paste instead of ketchup. Try it!
INGREDIENTS:
- 8 ounce can tomato sauce
- 6 ounce can tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic crushed
- 4 tablespoons minced onion
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon cayenne
- fresh ground pepper to taste
PREPARATION:
Cook minced onion and garlic in olive oil until onions turns opaque. Add remaining ingredients, mix thoroughly and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes. Makes about 1 1/2 cups of barbecue sauce.

You can call me names, and slap me silly, but you won’t change my mind. I love Miracle Whip. On sandwiches, as a burger condiment, with cake and ice cream.
I discovered this magic combination last year after catching a big striper (striped bass) on Martha’s vineyard. On our boat we caught enough fish for an extended family gathering with about 12 people. We had the fish filleted and bagged for easy transport home. I cooked it half using a Bobby Flay Orange-Mango sauce recipe from one of his books (which my wife got autographed from the man) called Boy Meets Grill. The other half was cooked in a ginger terayaki sauce. While the bass cooked, I “whipped” up some of my Miracle Chipotle for a dipping sauce with the ginger terayaki bass, using about a teaspoon of Tabasco Chipotle flavor for every couple of heaping tablespoons of Miracle Whip (hint: start slow and stop when it tastes really good).
The taste combines the tangy-sweet zing of miracle whip with a fine smokiness that will enhance just about any type of BBQ, especially grilled fish. Probably could use mayonnaise too… if you are turned off by the Whip.
