Ok.. these are the days of strange BBQ sauces… here is one that is based on Hershey’s chocolate syrup.
Here’s an interesting concoction. A chocolate syrup inspired barbecue sauce to try on grilled pork or chicken. The Special Dark variety is used because it’s not as sweet as it more popular cousin milk chocolate. Starting with the familiar ketchup base, vinegar adds some twang and hot sauce provides the kick.
You might want to substitute fo one of the other bittersweet chocolate syrups on the market from any of a number of gourmet chocolate houses. While more expensive, they’ll add a more complex and richer flavor.
