Great stuff
Granny’s never disappoints. I’ve become addicted to the gentle sweetness and fruit flavors. Just yesterday i basted a rack of St. Louis style ribs with Grannys and a touch of rib candy following a low/slow cook w/lump charcoal and hickory. Grannys provides a rich dark flavor that most people enjoy. Never too sweet; always tasty. Thanks BPS for keeping Grannys going strong.
Seasoning was delicious. Our cooked meat with that seasoning was very good. Love the taste of it.
Nice fitting shirt
