This rhubarb bbq sauce answered my need for a good barbeque sauce that has no tomato since my stepmother is allergic to tomatoes. So here I am, depending on the rhubarb to give me that tang. Makes a unique sauce. Add the liquid smoke flavoring if you aren't grilling with real smoke.

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon ground allspice

  1. Combine rhubarb, sweet onion, soda, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, cinnamon, allspice, salt, black pepper, cloves, ground chipotle, garlic powder, and liquid smoke in a saucepan; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer until rhubarb and onion are very soft, about 45 minutes, stirring often.
