Of course you can have a BBQ with shop bought sauces and side dishes, but it is so much nicer to make your own sauces and sides. This smoked tomato ketchup is a delicious topping on flame grilled burgers or any other food you prepare on your BBQ. We always go large on ketchup on our fries and meat, and the smokiness of this ketchup ads a total new dimension to them.
