Barbecue sauce (also abbreviated BBQ sauce) is a liquid flavoring sauce or condiment ranging from watery to quite thick. As the name implies, it was created as an accompaniment to barbecued foods. While it can be applied to any food, it usually tops meat after cooking or during barbecuing, grilling, or baking. Traditionally it has been a favored sauce for ribs and chicken.^[1] On rarer occasions, it is used for dipping items like fries, as well as a replacement for tomato sauce in barbecue-style pizzas. In some barbecue circles, it is frowned upon to add any condiment, including barbecue sauce, to barbecued food.^[2] Image File history File linksMetadata Download high resolution version (1728x2592, 2449 KB) Summary Licensing File links The following pages on the English Wikipedia link to this file (pages on other projects are not listed): User:Kbh3rd/Images Pork steak Metadata This file contains additional information, probably added from the digital...
