Nothing fires up summer like homemade BBQ sauce. Can you smell the peppers and woodsmoke in the air yet? 
While I am partial to KW’s homemade barbecue sauce I still experiment with different sauces from time to time. Here is a homemade BBQ sauce recipe I recently ran across on a blog. I haven’t used it yet but plan to.

That ought to do it for you. If you aren’t hungry yet you just aren’t trying hard enough…..I think I’ll cut this short and get outside and fire up the grill. Thanks for stopping by.
