Watermelon BBQ Sauce



Sorry that this week’s recipe is a few days late; this week has been a bit hectic. Better late than never, though, right? This week we have another way to use up some of that watermelon that you don’t want to go bad but you don’t know what to use it for.


What You’ll Need…

2 Cups Watermelon Juice
1 Cup Vinegar (Any kind)
¾ Cup Dijon Mustard
¾ Cup Brown Sugar
¾ Cup Ketchup
Pepper (To taste)
1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 Teaspoon Chili Powder
1 Tablespoon Corn Starch (Optional)

Start out by breaking down cubed watermelon in a food processor until you have two cups.

Add all of the ingredients except the corn starch to a medium sauce pot, stir to combine, and place the sauce over medium high heat. Allow the sauce to come to a boil and to boil for about 3 minutes. This will help the sauce to come together and to tighten up.

If you would like a thicker sauce add the corn starch after all of the ingredients have been added but before turning on the heat.

Once the sauce has boiled remove it from the heat and allow it to cool.

Add it to your favorite BBQ dishes and enjoy!

This sauce is great with tofu, chicken, meatballs, or anything else you like with BBQ sauce.
