Food and Drink Carolina style BBQ sauce is soooooo good!!! - Page 6

Saccopoo · 10-26-2009, 08:03 PM

So I decided to put my Carolina style BBQ sauce to the test and had some family over last night for guinea pig duty. Grilled up a bunch of chicken on the Weber Genesis 320 (which is and has been a marvelous propane grill - I highly recommend it), made some potato salad (using from scratch french dressing for the marinade) some of my pickles from last years garden and a loaf of sourdough bread. (Had to purchase that as I was out of sourdough starter.)

Seasoned the chicken with a little salt, pepper, ground thyme and paprika. Cooked the chicken under indirect heat for approximately one hour, applying the sauce the last 10-15 minutes of cooking, turning once during that time to coat both sides.

It was frickin' awesome. While I know that there are some KC style BBQ sauce purists around here, I strongly suggest that you give this sauce a whirl if you're grilling up some chicken, pork shoulder and fish (it's really great on heavier/denser fish like swordfish, mako shark, cobia and the like). I usually just buy a bottle when I'm down in Hilton Head for the family vacation (when in Rome...) and use it when I'm grilling chicken and fish. Decided that I could probably make some that appealed to my tastes a bit better than the store bought stuff. At least to me, it's much, much better. And it's easy as heck to make.

Here's the recipe:

1 c. prepared yellow mustard
¼ c. granulated sugar
¼ c. molasses
¼ c. honey
3/4 c. cider vinegar
1 T. white vinegar
1 T. balsamic vinegar
¼ c. light lager beer
1 T. vegetable oil
½ T. key lime juice
¼ t. hot sauce
¼ t. ground thyme
¼ t. white pepper
¼ t. fine ground black pepper
pinch of ground cayenne pepper

Mix and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for approximately 20/25 minutes.

Next time, I'll try to remember to put the BBQ on my Elk, grizzly bear and brown trout plates.

I do grow a number of my own spices, but I haven't made my own chili powder. I'm going to work on that this week in fact. Great idea!

Let me know how you like it.... I'll stake all my Casino Cash (whatever it is, I have no clue) that you absolutely LOVE it.

Sorry it's taking me so long to respond as I'm eating the cold chicken from the Carolina BBQ sauce creating thing. Jesus this shit is really good.

Anyway, I'm serious about the elk, trout plates. Got a full set:
