Cranberry-Orange BBQ Sauce

Turkey season is definitely upon us. I'm always amazed at how much interest there is online in finding new and better ways to prepare and serve a better bird at this time of year. Here's my contribution to this year's madness. Whether you brine your Thanksgiving bird, barbecue it , or just roast it old-school, it can always use a little boost. Cranberry and orange are an obvious combination that really works well with turkey, and smoked turkey all but begs for a barbecue sauce all its own.

GuinnessĀ® BBQ Sauce

I created this sauce for my St. Patty's Day broiled lamb chops , but it turned out to be so good that I think it warrants its own post. It has a good balance of sweet and savory, but maintains the unmistakable flavor of GuinnessĀ®. My kids even liked it, which is a great testimony for an on-the-fly recipe.

Homemade Hot Sauce

I am a serious hot sauce fanatic. I put it on almost everything, so much so that my girls think I've burned off all my "tastebugs". At any given time I'd guess that I have ten kinds in the house. Some, like Tiger Sauce, are for more specific purposes while the others are various types and flavors to accessorize certain types of food. If I had to pick one to use for the rest of my life it would probably be Melinda's XXX Chipotle . It's great stuff!
