I talked to the clerk and he said that it may be BBQ sauce and hot sauce. I originally thought it tasted like ketchup and hot sauce.

Answer 2
It's possible that the sauce is 'schaschlik sauce'. It's a tomato-based sauce, with an interesting mix of spices. You can find it in the US labeled as 'curry ketchup'. There are a few companies that bottle it, and lots of variety -- there are some that are quite spicy (eg, the Hela Extra Hot.
If you search online, you can find recipes for it. You can search for 'curry ketchup', but if you do, ignore the ones that call for curry powder + ketchup ... it's much more complex than that.
If you have any places near you that specialize in Dutch or German groceries, you might be able to find a place that imports the stuff at a more reasonable price than that Amazon link I had above.
(The last place I got the extra hot one was Moore's Sauerkraut & Pickles in Maine. I've seen way more places with the 'scharf' (hot) or 'pikant' varieties ... skip the 'delikat' (mild) one)

There are different ways of making hot sauce. First you need to be clear, was it salty or sweet?
1) Salty hot sauce: hot sauce, ketchup, cumin power, coriander powder, ginger/garlic paste,salt, pepper. (But your sauce doesn't look so spicy or thick)
2) Sweet hot sauce: hot sauce, bbq sauce, very little ranch, mustard sauce.
