No Tomato BBQ Sauce (Sugar-Free)

There are plenty of ways to make a great BBQ sauce at home that is delicious and also healthy for you. This is my easy recipe for sugar-free, no-tomato BBQ sauce that is sweet, tangy, and even spicy if you want.

Ingredients

- Extra virgin olive oil - Onions - Garlic cloves - Anchovies - Allspice, nutmeg,    turmeric, paprika,    cayenne pepper,    pepper, salt - Dijon mustard - Red Tabasco - Apple cider vinegar - Monk fruit sweetener - Filtered water - Tapioca flour

Add the olive oil to a saucepan and sautee the onions on low heat until they start caramelizing. It can take about 20-25 minutes. Stir occasionally. They are ready when you begin getting brown bits sticking to the pan.
