Preparation

Step 1
Heat the oil in a saucepan and add the onions. Cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the garlic, cook briefly and add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often, about 30 minutes. Let the sauce cool and use for basting. This sauce is good for any barbecued meat and keeps very well refrigerated.
