tablespoonKosher salt

Directions

Saute onions, garlic, and jalapenos until soft. Add all of the dry spices and saute about 3 minutes, scraping pan bottom. Deglaze pan with the cider vinegar. Add remaining ingredients and simmer over low heat for about 2 hours.

NOTES : I only added ¼ cup of molasses while the sauce was simmering.

After the sauce cooled I decided it needed more molasses and added ¼ cup more. I think I liked the way the molasses tasted being added without cooking. Try doing it this way and I think you will be pleased.
