Chef Grandinetti’s Thai-inspired BBQ Sauce

Sweet, Sour, & Hot!  Strong aromatic components combine to create a well-balanced FLAVOR BOMB!   
This “killer” Thai-inspired BBQ Sauce marries well with many proteins: I suggest Shrimp or Pork applications… 

I am excited to prepare this umami-laden sauce with Pan Roasted Wild Boar Loin Chops & Thai Style BBQ Sauce atop Fragrant Jasmine Rice, with Cremini Tempura garnish on St. Valentine’s Day Weekend at Overlook Farm.
