This black coffee barbecue sauce is a delicious combination that balances the acidity of the coffee with the sweetness of the other ingredients. The original recipe was adopted after the departure of a member, and it is a pleasure to know that everyone likes it so much. It can be made with regular coffee, although espresso is recommended for a more intense flavor; in a pinch, strong instant coffee can be used. The mixture includes brewed coffee, ketchup, red wine vinegar, dark brown sugar, onion, garlic cloves, dark molasses, spicy dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, cumin, and chili powder. All the ingredients are combined in a saucepan and simmered for 20 minutes. It is then cooled and processed in a blender or food processor until a smooth texture is achieved. The sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks in a sealed container.
