- ½ tbsp beef tallow (optional, but highly recommended)
Directions

- Once the sauce has cooled down transfer it to a jar, bottle, or squeeze bottle for storage. Store the BBQ sauce in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Recipe Note
Rub & Grub Deja Moo seasoning is a unique blend of coffee, ancho chilli, herbs and other spices that gives this BBQ sauce a delicious and complex flavour.
Beef tallow is a traditional ingredient in American low & slow style BBQ sauce that adds richness and depth of flavour. If you prefer a lighter sauce you can skip this ingredient or substitute with vegetable oil.
