About

There are many great home cooks in the Caribbean who create their own barbecue sauce. Some of them sell their fare on the streets, and each of these vendors is known for the type of barbecue sauce they make. Many Caribbean-style barbecue sauces call for fruit flavors, like pineapple and passion fruit. In this recipe, I’ve used pineapple.
