Recipe - Red Chile Bbq Sauce

1 Bag (2oz) Freida's New Mex
dried chiles
1 Bag (1oz) Freida's dried
Chipotles
10 Sun dried tomatoes
3 Cloves garlic
1 md Onion
One half cup Chives (optional)
2 teaspoon Oregeno
1 Bottle beer (homebrewed is
preferred)
2 teaspoon Salt
1 Three fourths cup Cider vinager or white
vinager
One half cup Soy sauce
1 cup Honey
1 cup Amber malt xtract (or pale)
1 teaspoon Reallemon lemon juice

This is a chile BBQ sauce that has the flavor and aroma of red New Mexican
chilis and the slight smokey hot flavor of chipotles. Honey and malt
extract is used for sweetnstickyness and cider vinager is used to balance
the sweetness.

Rehydrate all the dried chipotles, tomatoes, and chiles. Discard the seeds.
Then add it to all the ingredients above the dotted line. Puree in a
blender until the mixture is real smooth. Use some of the water from the
rehydration in the blender to do this.

Mix the puree and the remaining ingredients in an adequate pot. Boil for
about 5 minutes then reduce heat to a simmer. The sauce is done when it
clings nicely to a spoon or spatula without running off. Makes 34 10oz
bottles. (I use old BBQ bottles) Keep refrigerated.

This sauce tastes great on chicken breast, steak, or any other BBQ food.
This batch was not hot enough for me. Next time I will add 0.5oz dried
habaneros to beef it up.
