For a smoky flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika during the simmering stage. Adjust the amount of hot pepper sauce to your desired level of spiciness. For a smoother sauce, use a whisk to combine the ingredients, especially when adding the ketchup. This sauce is excellent on ribs, pulled pork, chicken, or even grilled vegetables.
