Directions
I guess, if you really, really pushed it, you could call this a NC style barbecue sauce. After all, according to "Edna", this is from a relative who lives in NC, and it does contain vinegar. It looks like a good sauce, with good flavor balance, but I don't think I'd call this a true NC style sauce.
Mix all. Let sit for at least 4 hours before using.
