casa di graffagnino's hot lips bbq sauce
It took me a while to develop just the right taste for this firey and tangy concoction. It's great on burgers, ribs, chicken, sausage, pulled pork, shredded beef, you name it. This is not a sweet sauce, it has bold flavors that leaves a lingering heat on your tongue and lips, as the name implies. The Option in the recipe allows you to reduce the heat while keeping the big bold flavor.
