I remembered his thread about the cherry-picking, and recently came across this recipe on my Q site. Although this recipe says canned, if you got fresh, use 'em

Another guy on the site does this same thing, but uses more jam, less cinnamon, adds a dried chipotle, and uses a blender to get the right consistency.

This barbecue sauce has a sweet flavor from the combination of cherry soda, cherries and cherry jam. While you might think this a strange barbecue sauce the taste is fantastic and it works well on most any kind of meat.

INGREDIENTS:

3/4 cup black cherry soda
1 can (17 ounces) bing cherries, drained
1/4 cup dry red wine
3 tablespoons cherry jam
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
salt and pepper to taste

PREPARATION:

Combine 1 tablespoon of wine with the cornstach and mix until it forms an even paste. Set aside. Combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a low boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring. Add the cornstarch paste and return the sauce to a boil stirring constantly. All to boil until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

One of my favorite marinades tha shows up at Costco occasionally is Raspberry-Chipolte sauce. Fantastic on Costco lamb chops. That extra bit of hot does work well with the berries.

I'm gonna try this, but I'm amazed there's nothing tomato-based in here at all, know what I mean? Like not even ketchup.

They use that on ICE CREAM?

Ira,
That sounds like a great sauce!!!
I'll have to try it... Thanks!
Wonder what it would taste like with a little dab of...

Dennis,
I discovered that sauce at the IDOS Fall Convention at La Pine, OR last year.
I'm still waitin' for my local Costco to get it back in stock...

My brother's Costco is a "test' store so they get good stuff more often than I do here. He knows to grab a bottle for me any time it shows up. I just checked here yesterday and look for the suggestion box too. I am down to my last bottle but it is almost full.
I will check his store before Mendo.

Ira: The Costco bottle is 40oz for about $13.

Wow--at that price, that's gotta be the good stuff then. (I pay a premium price for the regular Q sauce that I buy--Big Rick's from Kansas City.)

But this cherry thing is something I would want to try to make myself first though--and although I have a Sam's closer to me, I refuse to join AGAIN:

Those places are just too addictive.

PREPARATION:
Combine 1 tablespoon of wine with the cornstach


This might seem silly to some but for my personal preference I do not cook with wine or alchohol even though it is said that the alchohol cooks out.
Does anyone have a good substitute for the wine? This sounds like a really good recipe and I would like to try it.
thanks

Eunice,

You can use grape juice or even apple juice. Water will work in a pinch. There is so little (1/4 cup) I doubt the flavor will be much altered. I too, don't cook with alcohol due to my friends who are recovering alcoholics.

Eunice, try a tablespoon of (good) red wine VINEGAR and a tablespoonful of frozen concord grape juice concentrate. Put the concentrate in a Pyrex measure and pour the vinegar over, then stir until it's melted/combined.

thanks Barbara. Even apple cider would give it the punch that supposedly wine does.

Welcome.
It's both sweet and sour, and you may wish to warm it a little before adding cornstarch.
