Sugar-Free BBQ Sauce
You all know I’m the world’s biggest barbecue season fan, and I’m always looking for ways to make eating it a bit more healthy. This sugar-free BBQ sauce has been in my family, seriously, forever. It tastes even better than the real thing at times. I was sick and tired of the gross, sugar-alcoholy tasting sugar-free BBQ sauces at the store so I knew I had to make one on my own. I’m very excited to finally be able to share it with all of you. I hope you try it and love it as much as I do!
