A fresh and tangy BBQ SAUCE featuring RHUBARB!!| SUMMER | #RHUBARB | #BBQ | #SAUCE | #Recipes at OatandSesame.comRhubarb BBQ Sauce in a jarWhat else can you make with Rhubarb? This is always the burning question for me.

Of course I love a good rhubarb crisp recipe, but there have to be savory ways to use rhubarb. It’s a vegetable right? Is rhubarb a vegetable? I answer all your burning rhubarb questions here.

I have a lot of rhubarb. When I first planted my garden I got so excited to have my very own and sort of went overboard. I’ve since divided it and transplanted it to a more suitable location.

Rhubarb is virtually indestructible, so it doesn’t need to take up space in my raised garden beds.

Lat year I made Rhubarb Ginger Jam which was really delicious despite it being my first time jarring. When I made this Rhubarb BBQ Sauce, I just froze the extra so I didn’t have to worry about the jarring process. You can follow the jarring process I used in the jam recipe if you want to keep it shelf stable.

You have probably heard of blueberry bbq sauce, so why not rhubarb? It’s lip smacking delicious and a great way to use a bunch of rhubarb in one recipe. I recommend making it a day or two before you’d like to use it. The flavors mellow and settle in together after a few days in the fridge.
