INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tbsp Light Olive Oil
  • 0 1/3 cup, chopped Red Onions
  • 2 tbsp Chili Powder
  • 3 tbsp Vinegar (Cider)
  • 12 oz Light Beer
  • 1 3/4 cup Beef Broth, Bouillon or Consomme
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 0 1/4 cup Unsweetened Ketchup
  • 1 Tbsp Arrowroot Starch

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a medium-size heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat oil over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Add onion, and cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes.
  2. Stir in chili powder, and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in vinegar and beer; cook until almost completely evaporated, about 1 minute. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce and ketchup. Increase heat to medium, and bring to a boil.
  3. Cook until sauce is reduced to 2 cups, 15 to 18 minutes. Dissolve 1 tbsp arrowroot in 2 tablespoons warm water. Add to the sauce, stirring constantly, and simmer until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, and serve warm with Texas Barbecued Beef Brisket (see recipe).  Sauce can be made up to 3 days ahead and refrigerated in an airtight container.  Each serving is 1/4 cup.
