Instead of using bottled sauce for my ribs I created a barbecue sauce recipe using agave syrup which is lower on the glycemic index. I used to make my mother’s old recipe, but she used brown sugar and ketchup. I adapted my mother’s recipe, but instead of using ketchup which is also full of sugar and salt, I used tomato paste. If you want a lower sodium sauce you can use low-sodium tomato paste. I added hickory smoke which gives it a great barbecue taste. I hope my husband enjoys this and you, too!

So if you wanted to make this with molasses instead of agave, how much do you think I should add? I do like my sauce a little sweeter and am not above adding brown sugar when the mood strikes.
I haven't experimented with molasses instead of agave, but if you do, I would use light flavored molasses. And because it is thicker than agave nectar, you may wish to add a little water if it thickens too much. Start with the half the amount of molasses and add more to taste. However, brown sugar would taste better. It really sounds like you need an entirely new recipe. Here's one I found online that calls for both brown sugar and molasses: http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/brown-sugar-barbecue-sauce-10000001197242/. Just be sure you use a brand of tomato paste (Hunt's, Del Monte, Trader Joe's) and hickory smoke (Wright's) that is gluten free.
Enjoy!

This is delicious! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed, Brenda!
You can use agave nectar as the other choice to maple syrup or honey. Baking with agave nectar is same with when using traditional ingredients, but there are some rules you must observe in order to create good results. What is your favorite recipe for baking with agave nectar?
