Method

  1. 1

    In a heavy-bottomed sauce pot, combine the yellow mustard, granulated sugar, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and water.

  2. 2

    Whisk in the chili powder, black pepper, white pepper, cayenne, and Worcestershire sauce until fully dissolved with no lumps.

  3. 3

    Set the pot over medium heat and whisk frequently as it warms, keeping the whisk moving to prevent the sugars from scorching on the bottom.

  4. 4

    Once it comes to a gentle simmer, add the unsalted butter and continue whisking until it melts in and the sauce becomes smooth and glossy.

  5. 5

    Simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, whisking often, until the sauce has thickened slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Keep the heat moderate — do not let it boil hard or the butter emulsion will break and separate.

  6. 6

    Remove from heat and let cool slightly before straining if a smoother texture is desired. Store refrigerated in a squeeze bottle or jar; whisk before serving.
