No suggestions as I have just messed with a Carolina vinegar sauce that has needed help. I will ride along and see how this goes. Regardless, I will try the above recipe as the major commercial players mentioned here are generally very proud ($$-wise) of their products. No issues with that if that's what the market will support.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

I always like to throw in a little of what im drinking and a little of what I'm cooking so I always do beer or bourbon (whatever im drinking that day) and whatever rub I'm using that day. Seems to all come together in the end.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX

I use molasses in all the BBQ sauces I make. Adds a great smoky sweetness. Not too much, it can be pretty powerful. This does look like a pretty solid start.Finally back in the Badger State!

A little bourbon, molasses, and mustard powder would be good.

Agreed with molasses.
Little worcestershire is good too

also I have noticed through my BBQ sauce making experience that paprika ≠ paprika. Try to find paprikas that are "small batch" or look that way and experiment.
I also like to take the molasses and replace with pomegranate molasses from time to time.

Add a couple chipotles for smokey heat
