Barbeque Sauce thinner?

January 3rd, 2013

What can I use as a thinner for barbeque sauce? Im going to make some "crock pot spare ribs" I want to try to cook them completely in the crockpot and will cook them for about 16-18 hours. Im worried that the BBQ sauce will become to thick while cooking. Any ideas?

Yeah! 16-18 is way too much, the meat will liquify! I cook 3-4 pounds no more than 6-8 hours. (First you should brown the ribs an drain drain the grease, after tou cook them in the crock pot I put my ribs in the oven on low coveren in sauce for almost an hour)

For a "thinner" 1/2 cup water or better yet, RED WINE! (don’t thin too much as the meat will produce a fair amount of juices while cooking!!)

    Just use water.
    When it evaporates it will turn back into the original thickness that the sauce was to begin with.
    Water only!!

    Use some water flavored with barbeque shaky flavoring and cinnamon.It’s so good. And I would LOVE to have some of your Bar-b-q!So yum…

    the fat from the spare ribs will thin the sauce…but ading water will work also.

    16 to 18 hours to cook ribs ? They would be done in 5 hours for sure,no dried out ribs or sauce !!
