I found this “Indispensable Almost No Carb Barbecue Sauce” on Facebook some time back, so I don’t know the original source. I suspect it may be from www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/43067291.php

They claim it isn't a substitute for the "real thing," it's an improvement. It's so good that non-low-carbers will love it, too.  I must say it’s a huge improvement on the sugar-free barbecue sauces I’ve found in the stores.  And it’s so easy to make!

3/8 cup vinegar (6 Tbsp)
1-1/2 cup tomato sauce. (one 15 oz can)*
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1-1/2 tablespoon yellow hot dog mustard
3/4 tablespoon Franks Hot Sauce (the chicken wing sauce)
3/4 tablespoon salt (optional)
1 dash cayenne pepper. (Go easy!!!!)
3 teaspoons lemon juice
1-1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke flavouring
6 teaspoons Splenda or sweetener of choice, or 18 drops of liquid sweetener

* This should be plain tomato sauce, no spices or flavourings in it. In Australia, tomato sauce is a much different thing - basically ketchup - and that’s not the same as American-style tomato sauce. The closest you’ll find here is a plain tomato passata or puree.

Add vinegar and all other ingredients except mustard to a sauce pan and slowly heat. Once warm, put mustard in a cup and slowly stir in a couple tablespoons of sauce until well blended. Then add mustard mixture back to sauce in pan.

Bring to a boil, and lower heat. Let simmer for a few minutes. Let cool, then refrigerate.

Note: this sauce will taste a bit peculiar if you taste it when it is still hot. Don't worry! Something magical happens when it sits in the fridge.
