Coca Cola Barbecue Sauce

I took my mom’s delicious homemade barbecue sauce and added a few ingredients to create Coca Cola Barbecue Sauce. It’s a keeper for sure. 

We always loved mom’s simple barbecue sauce. She would mix ketchup and mustard together, add a few shakes of this and a little of that and make the best sauce. She always added lots of black pepper. To this day, it’s my youngest daughter’s favorite sauce.

You can do so many things with barbecue sauce. Here are a few ways I use this delicious sauce.  

• Grilled chicken
• Chicken wings
• Ribs 
• Baked Beans
• Barbecue Sandwiches

I love that this barbecue sauce is mild enough for the kids to eat yet flavorful enough for the entire family. Plus, it’s even better the day after you make it.
