BBQ
No matter how
casual the event,
parties are A
LOT of work.
Thank the hard
working host or
hostess of your next BBQ party with a
little something, and ensure an invite
for the next summertime soiree. Try
these hot sea salts to sprinkling on your
favorite seafood, veggie or even pizza!
A sprinkle of Campfire gives any dish
that glorious smoky, cooked-outdoors
aroma. Hot Steve is a sophisticated and
slightly fruity chili blend that will make
your old bottle of BBQ sauce feel like
a wallflower at the condiment party.
Sultan Papadopoulos, an inspired blend
of Greek and Turkish spices, makes a
delicious dry-rub and perhaps an even
more delicious Bloody Mary. Each flavor
is handmade from locally grown herbs
and organic spices, and comes in its own
beautifully designed, old-timey 6 oz. tin.
Reasonably priced and with decorative
labels you won't need much in the way
of presentation.
