Time to Barbecue!!

Time to Barbecue!!

It’s almost Memorial Day and that means its barbecue time!  Actually here in Georgia, anytime is barbecue time.  I’ve been known to crank up my Weber gas grill even in the snow!  And I’ve been seen on my patio with an umbrella, grilling a burger or piece of chicken!  Yes, I’m a die hard grill master! There’s nothing like it.

I have many fond memories of my family grilling on holiday weekends, usually on our boat at the island or at the lake house.  We’d always have hamburgers, hotdogs, and usually some venison sausage. The best sausage in the land!

For me, I’ll put anything on the grill – hamburgers, hotdogs, steaks, sausages, vegetables, seafood, and pizza is the best.  For Memorial Day, I’ll be grilling some chicken and I’ll be using this wonderful barbecue sauce.  This recipe has just enough kick in it to make it fun and it’s quite flavorful as well.  Make some today so you’ll have it for the holiday or any day for that matter.

Fresh is always better! 

Bon appétit!
