Summer’s Best Barbecue Sauce
I made a version of this sauce using peaches instead of pineapple for a private cooking class because my student could not eat tomatoes. I used apple butter in place of the tomato sauce with tasty results. Then one day I wanted to try some other fruits. Pineapple is my favorite because it is sweet enough to flavor the sauce without additional sugar.
