Barbecue Sauce for example: There is a New England based company that makes a very tasty Honey Barbecue Sauce with a lengthy ingredients list that includes some of the allergens we see at BrookeOK and "natural flavors." What, exactly, is natural flavors? Also on the list is "white wine." Many white wines contain sulfites. We don't know based on this label. We do know if we make it ourselves.
Another advantage is that we might make just enough BBQ sauce for dinner. No refrigerator space taken up storing sauce we might not use again until it has expired. The popular sauce with lots of ingredients is available in 11 oz. bottles for $5.99. That is almost $70 per gallon.
You might be able to make you own in a few minutes with ingredients you already have on hand for a fraction of the cost and nothing left taking up space in the 'fridge or going down the drain.
BBQ Sauce:
Sugar, honey, ketchup or tomato paste and water, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, cider vinegar, shallot salt(Penzey's) or minced shallots and salt, lime juice, turmeric, onion powder, cayenne pepper.
You don't need exact measures do you?
Take one Bell and Evans Chicken. Using a poultry sheers, remove the spine and flatten the chicken. Indirect heat on the grill for about an hour should bring you to the safe internal temperature (kills salmonella) of 165 degrees. Basting regularly with your homemade BBQ sauce makes for one moist and tasty chicken.
Coat asparagus in EVOO and sprinkle some kosher salt. Add asparagus to the grill once the chicken has reached 165 degrees. Five minutes or so with frequent turning over hot coals and it is dinner time.
WARNING: Once you have had grilled asparagus, you might never like steamed again.
