Notes
- Notes
- If you don’t have a Traeger or BBQ, just roast the watermelon in the oven at the same temperature. You can add 2 tsp of liquid smoke to it while roasting to get the same type of flavors! Adjust ANY of the spices you wish. You can customize it even more by roasting other fruits to add to it- like mango! Store the Smokey BBQ sauce in the fridge in a sealed jar or airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
