Let's see ...

 From Forme of Cury:
Lumbard Mustard. XX.VII. V. Take Mustard seed and waishe it & drye it 
in an ovene, grynde it drye. farse it thurgh a farse. clarifie hony 
with wyne & vynegur & stere it wel togedrer and make it thikke ynowz. & 
whan [th]ou wilt spende [th]erof make it tnynne with wyne.


... compared to ...


Honey Mustard Barbecue Sauce

1/3 cup Dijon mustard
1/3 cup dark honey
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons whole-grain or stone-ground mustard
2 tablespoon minced green onion (optional)
fresh cracked black pepper

Combine mustards in a bowl and mix well. Add other  ingredients and 
continue mixing until smooth.


It seems close enough.  Leave out the oil and pepper.  Add a bit of 
wine.  One of the other sauces on the same page called for lemon juice. 
  Most of them called for either molasses or brown sugar instead of the 
honey.

Going to have to do some Medieval Carolina BBQ tonight.
