Summer isn’t summer without BBQ, and BBQ isn’t BBQ without a finger-licking, super tasty BBQ sauce. ‘Ye Olde BBQ Sauce’ was developed to pay homage to a particularly memorable meal enjoyed in Montreal back in 1956. It’s been a family favourite ever since.
Baste ‘Ye Olde BBQ Sauce’ on chicken or a rack of ribs while they cook and allow the sauce to caramelize slightly or serve alongside a steak grilled to perfection.
