1/2 cupMustard, Dijon
1/4 tspOnion powder

1 pinchCloves, ground
1/4 tspGinger, ground
2 tspPaprika
2 tspPepper, Black
2 tspSalt

4 TbspMolasses

Serves: 4 people

1. Combine dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, molasses, and brown sugar into a small to medium saucepan.

2. Add remaining ingredients (spices) and bring to a boil.

3. Once boiling, turn it down to low and let it simmer for 5-8 minutes, stirring every few minutes.

4. Give it a taste and see how it's coming out - all of the spice measurements are approximate. Add more smoked pepper if you want it smokier, add more brown sugar if it's too acidic/not sweet enough (I had this problem at first), add more vinegar if it's too sweet, etc. The beauty of cooking for yourself is that you can do whatever you want!

5. Remove from heat and let it cool and thicken up a bit for at least 15 minutes
