Fresh rhubarb is roasted, then pureed and cooked with traditional barbecue sauce ingredients in this unique and flavorful condiment.
If you’re looking for a creative and delicious way to use rhubarb, you’ve got to give this Roasted Rhubarb Barbecue Sauce recipe a try!
I love the bright red color of fresh rhubarb, and it’s always one of the first things to appear at our farmers’ market in the spring.
Of course, once I get it home, I’m never quite sure what to do with it–besides making strawberry rhubarb pie.
If you’re wondering the same thing, I highly recommend this sweet and tangy barbecue sauce.
Although it’s technically a vegetable, it’s most often found in pies and other desserts (usually paired with strawberries), probably because it’s very bitter and usually needs a lot of sweetening up.
