  1. Put a small pot on the stove over medium-low heat.
  2. Finely dice the onion and garlic, then add them to the pot with the olive oil. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and slightly browned.
  3. Add all remaining ingredients to the pot, stir to combine, then increase heat to high. As soon as the pot is bubbling, turn off the heat and let sit for about 5 minutes, or until cool enough to safely pour into the bowl of a food processor or blender.
  4. Blend on high until sauce is completely smooth.
  5. Transfer the pureed sauce to a jar or container with a lid and let cool completely before using.
  6. This delicious BBQ Sauce can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
