For the best flavor, allow the barbeque sauce to cool completely and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before using. This allows the flavors to fully develop. Be careful not to burn the spices by basting the meat too early. Apply the sauce during the last 15 minutes of grilling or cooking to prevent bitterness. Adjust the amount of chipotle chile sauce and crushed red pepper to suit your preferred level of spice. Feel free to experiment with other types of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar, for a different flavor profile. This sauce is also delicious as a dipping sauce for fries, onion rings, or chicken nuggets.
