Regular Barbecue Sauce

AmericanCook: 10Serve: 3

This is what I call sweet sauce, even though it's not terribly sweet on the spectrum of barbecue sauces. It's a good, all-purpose sauce. We bottle it, sell it, and put it on the tables in the restaurant. I also mix it with vinegar to sauce the spare ribs when I cook them.

Pineapple Ginger Salsa

MexicanCook: null

Recipe from the Yarrow Bay Beach Cafe in Kirkland, WA. It was served with coconut shrimp. You can add coconut to the recipe, but the original recipe had no coconut in it. The salsa is sweet rather than hot and is great with tortilla chips. You can add additional jalapeño if you like a hotter salsa.
