For a spicier kick, increase the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking. If you prefer a sweeter sauce, add an extra tablespoon of brown sugar or molasses. This sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Consider adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce for extra depth of flavor.
