Carolina Mustard BBQ Sauce

Tomorrow is Labor Day and that usually means one thing.  It's time to fire up the smoker and celebrate the end of summer.  Tomorrow I will be smoking a pork shoulder for pulled pork and being from South Carolina, that means there is also a need for Carolina Mustard BBQ Sauce.  Given that my family does not share my love for mustard-based sauces, you will find that this recipe does not make a large volume of sauce.  If you need more you can easily double the recipe.

Note:  This sauce is best made the day before you plan to serve so that the flavors have time to meld.
