Here is one of my favorites. I use it as a base for variations. REC: Alice's BBQ Sauce
Here is the small batch version, which does not have to be canned, and then the larger version, which I use a #10 can of Heinz Ketchup that you can get at any wholesale club, and even most grocery stores have them. I make the big batch and then divide it into smaller batches, by adding chipotle in adobo to or chopped pickled jalapenos or habeneros, etc. However you want to flavor it. I have used fresh onions and the flavor just wasn't the same as the dried onions, so I always use the dried now.
