Ingredients

2 Tbsp Vegetable Oil

1 Small Onion

2 Garlic Cloves, finely chopped

1 tsp Red Pepper Flakes, finely chopped

In a saucepan cook onions in oil over moderate heat until tender.

Stir in garlic, red pepper flakes and chile powder and cook for one minute. Add ketchup, beer, vinegar, water, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and Tabasco sauce, stirring to combine. Partially cover and simmer until slightly thickened about 15 - 20 minutes.
