It’s football season and as a family, we love watching the game, taking bets on which team is going to win or lose, and even enjoying fantasy football, nothing quite beats getting together with friends and enjoying some good ole food. Our Sweet Baby Ray’s Honey Barbecue Shredded Chicken Sandwiches brings everyone together.
This post is done in collaboration with Sweet Baby Ray’s, however, all opinions are mine alone.
While living in New York City, I made friends from other Caribbean islands, one of them being Jamaica. During the summer they would hold their annual summer backyard get together and one of the delicacies that we indulged in was the Jamaican Jerk Chicken. Coming from the island of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, it’s not something that we specialize in, but I always love adding my own twist to tried and true recipes.
One day a few years ago while at the supermarket I happened upon Sweet Baby Ray’s Barbecue Sauces. It was “new” at my commissary so I only picked up one bottle to give it a try. That trial bottle has turned into numerous purchases and Sweet Baby Ray’s is now my go-to whenever a sauce is needed. That now brings me to this recipe that we enjoy making, and one that would be perfect for your game sessions or tail-gate parties.
The sweetness of the Sweet Baby Ray’s Honey Barbecue Sauce along with the spice and kick of the jerk seasoning is one that you’re going to love.
