FNCE travels took us through South Carolina, where I found recipes for homemade barbeque sauces. This Tomato Barbecue Sauce is from the state's travel magazine in an article titled "Get Saucy". I substituted Low Sodium V-8 for the tomato juice.
Tomato Barbecue Sauce
(2 Cups)
1 Tbsp. Diced Onion
1 Tbsp. Diced Celery and Leaves
1 tsp. Olive Oil
Saute onion and celery in olive oil.
Add:
2 cups Low Sodium V-8
1/2 cup Cider Vinegar
1 1/2 tsp. Dry Mustard
1 1/2 tsp. Cayenne
1 1/2 tsp. Hungarian Paprika
1 Tbsp. Cornstarch
1/4 tsp. Allspice
Simmer 30-40 minutes.
I baked the roasting chicken for 1 hour, then added new potatoes, carrots and celery. I baked another hour, then poured sauce over the chicken. After a total of 2 1/2 hours in a 325 degree oven, the internal temperature of the chicken was 165 degrees and the chicken was ready to eat. I had additional sauce leftover to make BBQ Chicken (Sandwiches?) and Slaw for tomorrow's dinner.
I love these little apple pies. Here's my recipe:

Today my colleague, Betty, a retired professor and licensed dietitian, joined me at a Well Fair at the WVU Student Union. It's always encouraging to talk to students who cook. We loved meeting the WVU mascot, the Mountaineer.
