Notes

  1. I used my own homemade habanero hot sauce but you can find it at most grocery stores. Always check the label for added sugars, sodium and preservatives, all are completely unnecessary for a delicious hot sauce.
  2. If you like to buy your barbecue sauces two of my favorite brands are Primal Kitchen and Tessemae. Both of these brands are not only organic, most of there sauces do not have any added sugar or preservatives. If you are on a Whole30, check labels because some of these sauces do have honey and/or maple syrup.
