I absolutely love summer time for grilling. The flavors of grilled food are always so savory and tasty!
For this recipe, I wanted to come up with something that was a little spicy, a little tangy, and super delicious! I mixed together the sauce ingredients in hopes for this flavor profile and it did not disappoint!
