WOW WOW WOW... that is all I can say! This was just the sauce I was looking for to set off my pulled pork dinner! I had to use bbq sauce, I was actually out of Catsup! I cooked it down a bit and now it is thick and a beautiful color! Thanks!!!

there was no taste of Blackberry till I ended up adding 3 jars of it. This site is bad about reviewers giving 3 stars and still saying they don't like it. Call it what it is people!!! This is "no" BBQ Sauce.

This sauce is ok, but not anything special. I probably won't make again. It just didn't have that ZING I was looking for. Every once in a while when I took a bite, I could taste the sauce, but not like I wanted. Thanks for the recipe, Ina.

I used this sauce on grilled pork chops and we really enjoyed it. My husband was skeptical at first but now this is one of his favorites.

I used this recipe on Easter with a 2.5 lb pork tenderloin in the crockpot. My family didn't hate it but they didn't love it either. It very well may have been the pork tenderloin, or perhaps I screwed up when I doubled the sauce--but for some weird reason the sauce had an odd aftertaste--a little bitter????? It was very easy to make and considering there are so many rave reviews, I will make it again!

Snaps for Ina! This is the best sauce ever, so much better than anything out of a bottle. I used regular mustard because thats what I had and it was amazing. I used it on grilled chicken and everyone loved the fruity flavor. Thanks for a great recipe!!!

Excellent! Entire family, guests included, loved this sauce. Instead of using it as a BBQ I saturated a cut of beef in the slow-cooker, and it turned out quite nicely. I added a little garlic and ginger as well. Even the folks who are not big fans of beef had seconds! Next time I think I will use a pork butt to slow cook because it isn't quite as stringy after a whole day of cooking. Thanks for this unique and tasty recipe!

This is really good and i'm more than happy with the results. We actually have this jar of blackberry jam that no one would touch for quite sometime now. The bbq sauce is a great way to add zing to your meal without your family guessing what your secret ingredient is. Here are the changes I made: reduce ketchup to 1 cup, instead of vinegar i added 2 T white wine (bec it is what i have at hand), add 2T each of freshly ground ginger and garlic, add a dash of paprika, since i dont have mustard powder i used 2 T prepared mustard, used hot sauce instead of cayenne, and added a dash of italian seasoning. I used this sauce to baste the baked baby back ribs i prepared for a family dinner following the baby back ribs recipe submitted by Ken Heffner.

Really good sauce! I did substitute 1/2 cup of the ketchup with my husbands favorite VERY spicy bottled BBQ sauce and omitted the cayenne. Normally no one else in the family can eat his sauce, but it gave a nice kick to this, that everyone enjoyed (5 stars with this change!) Cooked it about 15 minutes before basting meat to blend flavors and thicken it up. Used on ribs, would also be great on chicken.

I was really nervous about making this recipe because my husband is not a big fan of sweet stuff. Well, I'm happy to say we both LOVED this! I followed the recipe exactly except that I only added 1 cup of ketchup as per other reviewers suggestions and than I added a 1/4 cup of Bull's Eye bbq sauce because I was worried it would taste to "ketchup tasting" as other reviewers said. The intersting thing about this recipe is that is tastes awesome and you would never be able to tell what it is that tastes so interesting. I had my husband brush this on chicken wings that we grilled and they reminded me of the wonderful taste of duck when they serve it with a fruit glaze/sauce. I used seedless blackberry preserves. We are having a bbq on JLu 4th and are planning on serving this! I can't wait to see peoples reactions when they ask what is in it. Thank you for a delicious recipe! Try it...you will not be disappointed. It is NOT too sweet......just YUMMY!

This recipe was way to sweet for my personal taste. Being from Texas I prefer a tangy bbq sauce. My husband however loved it. Go figure....

I did not care for the fennel flavor, as I found it to be a little too overwhelming. Maybe using an entire bulb, and substituting anise (which I think is the same thing) is behind this, but I am not sure. My family seemed to like the burgers, but they said they could not really taste much. Overall, I would not invest the time in this recipe again, nor would I use it as a base to try to come up with something better.

How sweet it was. Absolutely mouth watering. Had to add a little extra (1/2 tsp) cayenne and 1/2 tsp of mustard to give it a little more zing and spice. But highly recommended for rib conosuers.

I made this recipe and changed a few things about it...I did not add the brown sugar or vinegar because you have both in the ketchup, blackberry preserves and mustard. However, I used some Jalapeno Mustard and 2 drops of Haberno Sauce and then add some dried onions and fresh garlic to the recipe. I cooked it on low to mix everything together and bring the flavors together. It did not come out sweet, but had a bit of snap and zing to the recipe.
