On July 4, 1776, we claimed our independence from Britain and democracy was born. Every day thousands leave their homeland to come to the “land of the free and the home of the brave” so they can begin their American Dream.
Over the years, the Fourth of July has truly transformed from being a boring history lesson to one of America’s favorite holidays. So join the rest of us who will drink beer, light off dangerous fireworks, and eat way too much BBQ to celebrate another birthday for our country (in 2010 our country will be 234 years old).
Some considerations for Fourth of July BBQ Sauces:
- You could be around lots of people (including kids with undeveloped tastebuds – keep good sauces away from them)
- You probably don’t want anything too hot (unless you want an inpromptu heat contest – which could be fun actually)
- You might want to have a few varieties to mix up the flavors a bit (always nice to have crowd pleasers and a few unique tastes)

Hello I am a big supporter of Out of the Park BBQ sauce. It is really frustrating trying to find great sauce that is not loaded with corn syrup or high fructose. I was so pleased to find a product that i feel is healthy for the family as we BBQ. Bill
