Heather’s top pick to add that special kick to elevate grilled meats and vegetables is Tenayo. They are globally inspired, Mexican-inspired barbecue sauces. It’s a chef’s kiss in a bottle. Tenayo’s Spicy Al Pastor is tangy, zesty and perfect for spicing up your rotisserie chicken or slow-roast pork. Sweet and savory Roasted Poblano pairs nicely with ribs, pizza or chicken tenders. Tenayo’s Mole Negro brings deep, velvety, sweet and savory richness to grilled meats and vegetables. Tenayo is Gluten-Free with low or no added sugar. Find Tenayo at Target or Ralph’s.
