It’s Football Season which means delicious food. We love to eat BBQ during football season. My product spotlight is Mantis BBQ. I have used their products before, so I won’t share any background information, but you can check it out here 

Mantis BBQ has a brand new product, “The Devil’s in the Datil”. The NEW Mantis BBQ is a “Hot BBQ  sauce that brings an explosion of citrus from the Datil peppers. Spicy yet flavorful and great on anything from meat to poultry and even fish. International Flavor Award winner 2025”.

I used the sauce on my Baked BBQ Ribs. These ribs were so easy to prepare. I prepared these in the oven. So anyone can make these fall off the bone ribs.
