Not your typical BBQ sauce

I don't know about you, but I LOVE BBQ... well, I am a canibal really lol

Ok, this is not your typical BBQ sauce, but still nice and not overpowering. Takes about 20 minutes to prepare (if you work slowly)

  • 4 Tbs. salad Oil
  • 1 Tbs. chili powder
  • 1 1/2 cups cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp. mustard
  • 2 tsp. finely minced garlic
  • 2 tsp. paprika
  • 1 tsp. sugar
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  1. In a medium sauce pan, combine all ingredients and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
  2. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  3. Let it set for at least one hour for the flavors to blend together.

You can either marinade your meat in it or just put it on top in the last minutes of grilling....

Chicken marinade

This marinade would work with other meats as well.

2 Tbs vegtable oil - don't use something overpowering. I use very, very mild olive oil
3 Tablespoons soy sauce - sodium reduced
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sause
2 Tablespoons balcamico bianco
2 teaspoons crushed garlic
1 Tablespoon resh Lemon Juice
1/2 teaspoon pepper or red chili flakes.


Place all ingredients in a small bowl and mix together really well. Put chicken in a deep dish and pour over the marinade. Marinate for minimum 1 hour or upto 12 hours.

You can either grill it or put it in the oven, reserving the marinade. Baste the chicken with the reserved marinade from time to time.

Just a note about the vinegar. I rarely use acete balsamico as I find it very overpowering. I LOVE the balsamico bianco version, which is much much milder in flavour. Of course you can substitute any wine vinegar. Come to think of it, some of the more funky vinegargs would work as well.
