1
each
onion

sliced



1/2
teaspoon
pepper





1 1/2
tablespoons
salt





1/4
teaspoon
cayenne pepper





3/4
cup
ketchup





2
tablespoons
worcestershire sauce

 In a saucepan, mix vinegar, water, sugar, mustard, butter, lemon, onion, and seasonings.

Simmer, uncovered, 2 minutes.

Add worcestershire sauce and ketchup, bring back to a boil and its  done.

NOTE: I do not use cayenne  or salt and always double this recipe.

Into the double recipe, I add about  1/4 to 1/3 cup brown sugar.

This gives the sauce more of a sweet and  sour taste.

It is just excellent on Baby Back Ribs, which I simmer in water with a little vinegar, garlic and just a pinch of salt for about 3 minutes before barbequeing.
