BlueBerry BBQ Sauce

This is a "copy" of a blueberry bbq sauce from the last place I worked. I just kinda through things together until the sauce tasted like what I remember.

1 Tablespoon of Canola Oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
4 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/4 beer, I used Clancys
1 cup frozen blueberries
1/4 cup ketchup
4 1/2 Tablespoons cider vinegar
1 Tablespoon of brown sugar
1 Tablespoon of molasses
1 Teaspoon cajun spice mix
fresh cracked black pepper
liquid smoke, optional

Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat, add shallots and cook about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add beer, bring to a boil, cook until most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in rest of ingredients except liquid smoke. Return to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thickened, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
*I like to add a few drops of liquid smoke to mine. :)

makes about 1 cup.
