Homemade Barbecue Sauce

To make an interesting barbecue sauce, I used Musselman’s Apple Butter and the flavors of Sweet and Sour Sauce.

I received a Musselman’s Apple Butter kit that included a Wilton Armetale grill pan.

This sauce is sweet, tangy and bursting with flavor!  Just mix 4 simple ingredients and slather it on meat or vegetables.

I decided to get my grill on with mushrooms and chops.  But, feel free to use your favorite vegetables and protein.  This sauce will be fantastic on chicken too!

The Wilton Armetale Fish Griller pan was perfect for grilling my Sweet and Sour Barbecue Mushrooms.  The mushrooms were infused with all that great smoky flavor while the pork chops did their thing on the grill.

Like I said, slather on that sauce!

Truthfully, I am not a grill master.  I am much more comfortable in the kitchen.  I decided that I will be working on my grill skills this summer.

Is there anything better than the smell of barbecue on a hot summer day with the distant rig-a-ling of the ice cream truck a few streets over?  Nope.
