Here are the ingredients to this Texas gold recipe:

4 fl oz of white vinegar
4 fl oz of tomato ketchup
4 fl oz of molasses
4 fl oz of orange juice
2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon of dried chili flakes
A good few shakes of Tabasco sauce
Salt and Pepper to taste

Toss all of the ingredients in a saucepan and gently simmer for about ten minutes. This step is crucial to your preparation because you absolutely do not want to bring it to a full boil.

Also, remember to make certain that your barbecue smoker is on low heat so as to not burn the barbecue sauce- or better yet you may just want to base it on for the last fifteen minutes of cooking. It is imperative that you do not burn the sauce as this will cause your food to loose the primary flavor of the spice.
