The site tells you how to make watermelon juice,
I just ran some watermelon through the food chopper and used that.
Bella was the perfect size for four kabobs and a half batch of sauce...
I think this tasty and very different BBQ sauce would be good with chicken, turkey and pork too.
In case you're curious, the watermelon was great with a little charcoal smoky flavor on it:@)

1/2 C watermelon juice
1/2 C balsamic vinegar
1/4 C brown sugar
1/4 C soy sauce
2 Tblsp vegetable oil
2 Tblsp Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp red pepper flakes-don't hesitate to cut back on this amount
Optional-add a little cornstarch to the leftover sauce to thicken it in a small sauce pan.
- Mix everything well-how easy is that!
- Pour some over meat and veggies, marinate a couple hours or overnight.
- Baste with remaining sauce as the food is grilling. You might want to divide the sauce in half so you can use some for basting and serve some at the table.
Eat well and have a happy day:@)
cute bella!

Sweet and spicy BBQ kebabs and watermelon. What's not to love?

Sound yummy...I like sweet and spicy and I love watermelon.
ReplyDeletethere is a lot of brilliance here Lynn~using meatballs is insanely cool idea, as is watermelon juice, but I especially loved the fact you thickened the marinade into a nice BBQ basting sauce~you could be the kebab queen!
