Does anyone have a good OJ BBQ Sauce Recipe

Unknown

Does anyone have a good Orange Juice based BBQ Sauce Recipe that they would be willing to share? Tried one OJ sauce recipe out at a local eatery --it was fantastic -- the owner would not share the recipe though. I will tell you -- it was better than any ketchup based sauce I have ever had in my life. One thing he did share was to smoke the BBQ with Orange Wood -- you would not believe the taste -- out of this world. Back on topic -- if you have the recipe please post or email it to me!! Thank You!!

F Tidwell, here are a couple:
Atomic Barbeque Sauce

2 cups orange juice
4 cups catsup
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tbs salt
1 Tbs black pepper
2 Tbs dry mustard
2 Tbs crushed red pepper
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp chili powder
2 Tbs Tabasco
2 Tbs tamarind paste
2 Tbs honey
2 1/2 sticks butter

Add the onion and 1/2 cup of the juice to a blender and puree until smooth. Transfer to a medium-size saucepan. Add the remaining ingredients to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer for 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside to cool. Sauce keeps two weeks in fridge.

Orange Barbecue Sauce - Charlie's [p]1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup orange juice
2 Tbs cider vinegar
1/2 tsp garlic powder or 1 clove fresh garlic
1 tsp cracked black pepper
3/4 tsp salt

1 Charlie comments: Mix all ingredients together. Carefully use as a baste for the last 10 to 20 minutes of grilling. Makes over 3/4 cup.
2 I marinated some chicken bits (thighs and drumsticks) in this stuff for a few hours.
3 The bits were smoked in a Weber Kettle for about an hour with the food on one side and the fire heaped up on the other (charcoal with chunks of plum wood). Basted occasionally with the marinade which had been boiled (can't be too careful!). I managed to keep the temperature at the grill down to around 240-260F.
4 Then I spread the coals out, opened the vents and moved the chicken bits directly over coals and crisped them. I basted liberally.
5 Verdict: The kids loved it. I found it a bit sweet. Maybe next time I'll add some Texas Pete or some other hot sauce.
