Even though it's now owned and produced by the Clorox Company, the taste of Original K. C. Masterpiece barbecue sauce is the same as when it was first created in good ole' Kansas City, USA. This is the sauce that steals awards from all the other popular slathers on the market. It's now even is sold in a variety of flavors. But this clone here is for the original, and you'll find it very easy to make. Just throw all of the ingredients in a saucepan, pop it up to a boil, then simmer for about an hour. Done deal. And just like the original Masterpiece, this stuff will make a work of art out of any of your grilled meats, or burgers and sandwiches; and as a dipping sauce or marinade.
