BBQ Chipolatas with Best Ever Smoky Tomato Sauce

  • 24 quality chipolata sausages
  • For the Sauce
  • 100g ketchup (low sugar is best)
  • 100g passata
  • 100ml cider vinegar
  • 100g soft brown sugar
  • 1 crushed garlic clove
  • 2 tsp chipotle paste
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Make the sauce by chucking all the ingredients in a saucepan, seasoning well, then bubbling for 4 mins until all the sugar has dissolved. Leave to cool and set aside. Heat up a barbecue and stick two skewers through six sausages, to make a kind of chipolata ladder. Repeat with the rest of the sausages in batches of six.
  • Barbecue your bangers until browned and sticky on each side, then brush with a generous slick of your sauce and cook for another minute until nice and glossy. Brush again with sauce before serving, obviously with more sauce on the side. Yum!
