Notes:
6

- If you're not a fan of too much heat, simply scale down the number of chipotle peppers you use for a milder sauce.
7

- If you're not planning on using the BBQ sauce immediately, cool the strained sauce completely and store in a microwave-safe container. When ready to use, reheat the sauce for 1 minute increments until warm.
