Trail Blazer Barbecue Sauce

2 cups chopped onions

1 cup strong black coffee

1 cup ketchup

1 cup Worcestershire sauce

½ cup brown sugar

½ cup apple cider vinegar

¼ cup hot chili peppers, minced

3 tablespoons chili powder

6 cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons salt

Mix together the onions, coffee, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, cider vinegar, hot chilies, chili powder, garlic, and salt in a saucepan until the brown sugar has dissolved. Place over medium heat, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes.

Pour the sauce into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the sauce moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth. Store in glass container in refrigerator.
