BBQ Sauce, Missouri Style

This BBQ sauce comes from Missouri but still has a lot in common with the Carolinas' vinegary sauces. Heavy on the vinegar tanginess, this is a savory barbecue sauce with just a hint of sweet and a touch of heat. Chili powder, dry mustard, and paprika add another level of mild heat to the preparation.
