I’ve been tweaking my Carolina BBQ sauce recipe, but it’s still a bit too sweet for my taste. Could someone share how they adjust the sweetness? Maybe using less sugar or adding another ingredient? Appreciate any advice!
To tone down the sweetness, you can definitely reduce the sugar, but also try adding a bit of vinegar or mustard to balance it out. These ingredients will give your sauce that tangy kick without overpowering it. You could also mix in a touch of Worcestershire sauce or hot sauce for extra depth and to cut through the sweetness. Give it a taste as you go, and adjust until it feels just right!
