I love summer and what could be better than grilling all summer long? Here are wonderful and easy ideas to make your summer bbqs and gatherings simple and delicious! Great gift ideas for Father's Day!!!

SWEET 'N SMOKY CHOCOLATE BBQ SAUCE (my personal favorite!):

I love DOVE Chocolate Discoveries BBQ Sauce, made with rich molasses, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, champagne vinegar, and a sinful blend of spices make this a spectacular sauce! So sweet on ribs, chicken and steaks! Whether you brush on just before done grilling, or enjoy:

Saute onions in olive oil and chicken and cook, until the chicken is no longer pink and the onions are caramelized. Then add the Sweet 'n Savory Chocolate BBQ Sauce to coat and ENJOY!!!! This is a hit in our home.

SWEET 'N SPICY COCOA RUB:

If you enjoy spicy food, you are sure to enjoy the Sweet 'N Spicy Cocoa Rub is great on chicken, pork and steak. Not only that, we can put a savory rub on our meat and potatoes, not to mention our vegetables in search of flavor. This versatile rub blends cocoa with sea salt, a touch of brown sugar, garlic, onion and smoked paprika.

For those who enjoy flavor, cut the spice by mixing it with olive oil.

FIG CHOCOLATE BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE:

The Fig Chocolate Balsamic Vinaigrette is delicious! For Mother's Day, I made a Savory Sausage Quiche with cranberries and then served it with a side salad. The Mothers enjoyed the Chocolate Fig Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing over salad greens, green peppers, cranberries and shaved parmesan cheese. Watch salads be transformed by this decadent blend of Balsamic Vinegar, fig, orange, white chocolate and vanilla. YUM!

Add grilled chicken for a salad that is fit to satisfy as an entree'.

Or

Serve the Fig Chocolate Balsamic Vinaigrette over spinach, strawberries, mandarin oranges, red onions. The possibilities are endless and your guests (or you) will enjoy a gourmet meal that is easy to prepare and scrumptious!!
