Planning a Memorial Day barbecue? Why not a Chocolate Barbecue Sauce? The following barbecue sauce is great on chicken. I usually dredge the chicken in dark cocoa (unsweetened) first. You can also make your own dark chocolate syrup using organic premium chocolate. The taste will vary with the chocolate. Experiment. You can triple this recipe depending on how many people are coming to your barbecue!
To add more chocolate to your Holiday Barbecue, make Smores on the Grill or Banana Boats.
Have a great holiday!

Chocolate barbecue sauce isn't something I would have thought of. But, you make it sounds interesting.

Also there's a sauce that has chiles in it.. fabulous! These aren't sweet..but great.
This looks like it's to die for! get it? To die for? Going to spread this on my burgers while they are grilling Monday. Maybe inject a bit into the center. Thanks!
Good idea to put some in the center! Yum.
This is so up our alley! The boys at the Phantom Gourmet would be all over this too. Thanks for sharing!
Oh goodness...I'm not sure what I'm doing this weekend but I may whip up a batch; just in case!
Thanks for sharing, Janet!
