Of course you can use this to marinate your chicken before you throw it on the grill, but there are so many other ways you can use this.

Here’s a few ways I’ve used it (and plan on using it) this summer:

  • Coat a portobello mushroom in this BBQ sauce, pop it on the grill then use it as a delicious meatless burger patty
  • Add this BBQ Sauce to a steak that has been seared, and heat it for a few seconds.
  • Add a spoonful to some Ranch dressing, and then smother the burger buns with it.
  • Mix a small spoonful into some ranch dressing and smother your burger buns in it
