Best BBQ Sauce: Simly Natural Recipe

I’d recently asked some online friends in a food forum what they thought the best bottled barbecue or bbq sauce is. Four out of five of them mentioned "Bone Suckin". I was NOT disappointed! It is not a thick gloppy sauce clogged up with corn syrup as most of the supermarket brands (Hunts, Kraft, etc) are. The best BBQ sauce flavor is complex. It is not too sweet, not vinegary, and with just a modicum of spice heat to keep it interesting, and so it tastes like barbecue. I’ve even used it in kitchen cooking (as opposed to grilling) and people commented on the great taste. I bought it from Amazon, but Whole Foods also carries it.

Small Microwave Oven: Compact It

I purchased this small microwave oven as an addition to my dorm room.
