Barbeque Sauce I
This sauce is an answer to a cookout classic that is ketchup-free! Ketchup is still awesome, but many of us don’t like using it as an actual ingredient when cooking. It feels like we’re cheating!
The African spice staple ground piri piri pepper was used to create this gloriously spicy sauce. Piri piri is like a raging fire, so you can go small on the spice factor if you don’t like your sauce ultra-hot. If you can’t find ground piri piri, cayenne, chili, or chipotle pepper will do! Rock it out on your favorite burgers this summer!
