More Sauce ReviewsWith it's simple, uncomplicated flavors, this sauce can do no harm to whatever you want to use it for. You won't find much heat here, but you do get a barbecue sauce with a deep sweetness that accomplishes a feat in not being sugary at the same time. The tomato, molasses, Worcestershire, and vinegar combo give it a ubiquitous barbecue sauce flavor that retains all it's defining characteristics both out of the jar and after being cooked.

Crispy Potato Skins with Bacon and Cheddar
As soon as Christmas is over, I switch from huge holiday roasts to full on party foods. New Years represents just the start of a few months that seem perfect to plop in front of the television, watch some basketball, and spend the night working through a plate of wings, ribs, stuffed jalapenos, or something of that sort—all great for tailgating too, but I personally prefer the comfort and warmth of my own home. One of my favorites in the winter-time rotation are potato skins, and this recipe adapted from The America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook makes the best I've ever had.

Butternut Squash Soup With Sweet Italian Sausage
Winter = soup. Plain and simple. The only thing more comforting than soup in the winter is an entire side of beef (preferably made into chili), but that's the exact reason I come out of the cold, dark months with more than a few extra pounds, so I try to veer myself to soups more often than not. Of course, leave it to me to take a soup and find a way to both make it on the grill and with the unhealthy addition of fatty meat. So maybe this butternut squash soup with sweet Italian sausage may not spare my seasonally expanding gut, but it certainly makes me a happy eater.

More Sauce ReviewsMade with Ghost peppers—the hottest peppers in the world—this sauce is unexpectedly balanced in its flavor. While this may be a disappointment for heat seekers, it does make it an above average sauce that could have a variety of uses and appeal to a larger base than just chile fans.
