Instructions
  1. Add onions and lard to a large saucepan on medium low heat. Season with salt and pepper and carmelize, about 20-30 minutes. The longer you carmelize, the sweeter the sauce will be and the less added sweetener you'll need.
  2. Add garlic and sauté until just beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add tomatoes, smoked paprika, honey, coconut aminos, and apple cider vinegar and let come to a simmer.
  4. Fold in tomato paste and liquid smoke
  5. Turn heat down to low, cover and let simmer for at least 60 minutes but up to 4 hours
  6. Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth
  7. Enjoy
Notes
If you don't have roma tomatoes, use 1 14oz can of diced tomatoes
