    Boysenberry & BBQ Recipe Contest Sponsored by McCormick Grillmates

    Mrs. Grail recently purchased a 1/2 gallon of Boysenberry syrup for our food storage.  We’ll never use that much syrup so I figured it might be a good idea to try and figure out how to combine the syrup with BBQ.  But how?  That’s the question.

    So, I’m going to have a contest.  Leave your best idea or recipe in the comment section below for how I should use the syrup.  Remember this is all about BBQ and/or grilling so the idea or recipe must include something being cooked on one of my smokers or grills.

    On September 1st I’ll pick and winner.  The winner will receive a McCormick Grill Mates Flavor Kit.  The kit includes everything you see below:

    Nibble Me This Smoker Giveaway

    My good friend, Chris, over at Nibble Me This is giving away a Masterbuilt Electric Smoker.  Check out his blog and sign up for a chance to win.  If you’ve ever wanted to give cold smoking a try this is a great way to start.

    The Masterbuilt Electric Digital Smoker is a great fit for most people who like BBQ but are intimidated about the thought of firing up a big smoker.  If you can use an oven you can use this smoker, it’s electronically controlled with a digital keypad.

    While you’re there take a look at all the great recipes and cooking tips he has on the site.  Nibble Me This is a great source for some fantastic smoking and grilling ideas.
