Barbecue Sauce from Myron Mixon
Makes 3½ CupsThis is the kind of sauce that most people have in their minds when they think of barbecue sauce—it’s a down-the-middle, universal variety that approximates the sweet and strong woodsy flavor of hickory. It’s very good on beef, pork, or lamb.

- 2 cups ketchup
- 2 tablespoons paprika
