Prepare Ingredients: Measure out all your ingredients. This makes the cooking process smooth and ensures you don't miss anything.
Melt the Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Aim for a gentle melt to retain the butter's creamy consistency.
Add Hot Sauce and Vinegar: Once the butter is fully melted, pour in the hot sauce and vinegar, whisking continuously to blend well.
Seasonings: Add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and brown sugar or honey to the saucepan. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
Simmer: Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help all the flavors meld together.
Adjust to Taste: Do a taste test. Add salt and pepper as needed. If you want more heat, you can add more hot sauce, or for additional sweetness, add a touch more brown sugar or honey.
Cool and Store: Once the sauce is done, remove it from heat and allow it to cool. Transfer it to a jar or an airtight container. If not using immediately, store it in the refrigerator.
