It’s National Barbecue Month so NOW is the perfect time to talk sauce!

Some of us like it, some of us don’t. And of those of us who love the stuff, we’ve all got our own ideas of what makes a sauce GREAT.

There’s tangy, sweet, tomato-y, and everything in between.

With so many options, what’s a BBQ sauce lover to do?

Check out this guide to all things “sauce.” It’ll help put things into perspective.

And, hey, would it be the worst thing in the world if you had to try them all to figure out which one you like best?

I think not.

Happy Barbecue Month! And happy saucing!

It’s that time of year when we celebrate all things BARBECUE!

Why, you ask? Because it’s National Barbecue Month!

What a great excuse to worship all that is grilling, meat, sauces and did I mention meat?

May really kicks off that time of year when you can start to venture outside and spend lots of time tending to your grill.

Okay, it’s really Santa Maria style, but with a Zac Efron twist.

The actor was recently featured in Parade magazine and asked to share a family recipe. Here is what the cutie, er, um, gentleman said:

“Growing up, we had a nice family dinner every night, and if we had people over, Dad would get on the grill. He is a bit of a chef, so he would always whip up something besides basic hot dogs or hamburgers. We liked trying different things, but this was a staple.”

This fantastic recipe features Top Sirloin marinated in salsa – yes, salsa! – and features a sweet and spicy flavor.
