Mango Barbecue Sauce

By , About.com Guide

This unique barbecue sauce combines fresh tomatoes and mangoes to create a sweet sauce, lightly spiced by chili peppers. This is a great sauce to add an authentic South American flavor.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 6 plum tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1/2 red onion slices 1/4" thick
  • 2 poblano chili peppers
  • 1 cup chopped mango
  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley
  • 1/4 cup chopped coriander
  • 1/4 cup chopped basil
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

Brush oil over tomatoes, chili peppers and onion slices. Grill on high heat, lid up, until they have good grill marks and have started to soften. Remove from grill and chop coarsely. Place all ingredients in a food processor and chop until chunky. Remove half of the sauce and continue blending until smooth. Pour smooth sauce over meat and marinade for at least one hour. Refrigerate chunky sauce. Baste meat with smooth sauce while grilling. Serve with chunky sauce. This sauce is great on pork, particularly ribs.
