Red Raspberry BBQ Sauce with Mesquite

Traverse Bay Farms was founded in 2001 by Andy and Jennifer LaPointe in Northern Michigan and is headquartered in Bellaire, Michigan. The family started the business to share the region’s fruit flavors through gourmet foods and personal customer service. Its stated priorities include careful preparation, consistent quality and making fruit-based foods part of everyday meals. The company remains family owned and uses locally grown produce when available.

Red raspberries, jalapeño peppers and natural mesquite smoke flavoring combine in a fruit-based barbecue sauce.

Brush onto cooked chicken, pork or vegetables near the end of grilling, or serve a little on the side. For related choices, browse fruit barbecue sauces and the wider American-made food and pantry collection.

Flavor and serving ideas

• Red Raspberry flavor selection.
• One bottle; the current sold net weight requires confirmation because the manufacturer listing and package photos disagree.
• A bbq sauce for measured portions, meal finishing and side servings.
• The manufacturer identifies this food as gluten-free; review the full ingredient statement for your own dietary needs.

Start with a small portion of red raspberry and add more after tasting. Serve it on the side when sharing a meal so each person can choose the amount. Use a clean serving utensil and keep any remaining product separate from food already on a plate.
