Who's BBQing?

I am!
Im making BBQ chicken, corn & baked beans, cheese burgers and regular stuff
like that.

I'm making ribs. Dry rub, memphis style, minus sugar.
Also, making a cold pasta with the dreamfields, prosciutto, parm, sun
dried tomatoes, etc.
Thinking about berry parfait.

We're packing picnic to go watch the DC fireworks from the roof of my
office building.
We're two-three blocks west of Congress and should have a great view
of the works
and the band.

I am doing plain old bottled BBQ sauce on most of the chicken for the rest
of the gang. I usually leave mine plain but if there is a good LC/sugar free
BBQ sauce to make or buy I will try it. I don't want anything that's more
like a science experiment than a condiment though LOL any suggestions?

If you want a useful condiment, look for Texas style sauces. They
shouldn't have
any added sugar.

If you want to branch out, Carolina style mustard sauces can be made
without sugar as well.

You can look on google if you want to make your own.

thanks, i'll have to investigate for another day. i like saucy ribs better
than dry rubs - have fun, sounds great. We have Jones Beach fireworks show
or NYC but the kids are too scared so we hang here.

Dry rub ribs and mostly green stuff.

Thanks for the reminder to take the chicken out of the freezer!

I usually marinate the chicken in a sauce I make as follows:

Some kind of spice mixed with a little canola oil and white vinegar.
Sometimes I use a prepared spice mix, but it's easy to mix one up, out
of something like paprika, dried oregano, garlic powder, a little
ginger, or chili powder. Obviously, I wouldn't use all of these in the
same marinade.

Or you could just marinate in some kind of vinaigrette.

yes, thanks - I do often make marinades. I miss sloppy BBQ sauce. Actually,
i don't really care *that* much but I would enjoy it once in a while 🙂

If you're not afraid of fire/spiciness, this is just the most amazing
marinade, either for grilling or baking chicken:

I buy it at Fairway. I see they also make a mild version, but I've
never tried it.

Great balance of flavors!

It's so easy to make, and there are a couple of brands in every grocery
store near me. I think Walden Farms makes one, for instance.

Here's one from Protein Power, as part of a recipe for barbecued
chicken wings. I haven't tried it myself yet.

1 c. water
1/2 c. olive oil
1/2 c. vinegar, white or cider
2 T. chili powder
1/2 t. cayenne pepper

Mix in a saucepan, bring to a boil over high heat, boil for five
minutes, and set aside to use. Pretty simple.

If memory serves, there's a BBQ sauce recipe which uses LC catsup as a
base in PP Life Plan; but my copy is loaned out right now, so I can't
share that one.

I think Blaine's LC Show on FIT TV had a recipe. Or else Low Carb
and Loving it on Food Channel. I'd check those sites.

Thanks for the good wishes. I would like to bar-be-cue if only the rain
would stop! It has rained 21 days in May, 19 days in June, and every single
blankety-blank day in July. That's about 68% of the time.

I went outside after dosing myself with double-strength DEET yesterday a.m.,
and the mosquitos just laughed. In two minutes, I had been bitten 8 times.

The only good thing about this weird weather is that my house is on a street
that has a decided slant to it so we're not getting flooded.

bah humbug!

Mix vinaigrette and dry rub for a workable non-sweet BBQ sauce that
can be applied with a brush during the cooking phase.
