What spices make good barbecue sauce?

I use tomato paste and water...cooking does add a change--in flavor../

Carlo Rossi burgundy wine--also adds a nice flavor..

I like to prepare some garlic..bulbs..cooking inside the oven..400-[F]

..wrapped in tin foil..drizzled in Veg. Oil..about 45-minutes../

Just slice off the Bulb-Top..and drizzle in some oil..

===

Once the garlic is roasted--fully//

Add it to some butter--for a saute'

...and then strain it---thru a sieve.../

To use in a Injector Needle../

===

If you use a drip pan...and a rotisserie

..I usually--re-apply the drippings...

===

Vinegar..I use as a brine.../

...I save the brine for my jalopena' pepper's//slices...

===

Oil..vegetable oil..I really don't use as a marinade..

I would use metled butter--instead..

===

Chilpolte's I use..but not w/black pepper..

Brown Sugar..use a lot of brown sugar../

Make a Spray..Bottle--of some type of BBq Sauce..

===

Look to start---in a smoker grill..

And finish in your kitchen.
