Fox Valley Cooks: Restricted diet leads to barbecue adventure

Margaret and Stephen Dodd always have shared the cooking responsibilities for their family. A few years ago, Margaret was diagnosed with a medical condition that required a restricted diet. Two of the items she could no longer eat were onions and peppers.

This restriction meant she had to stop using barbecue sauce, since all commercial varieties contain onions and peppers. Stephen managed to find a recipe for a homemade sauce made without peppers and onions and made it for his wife.

“It was terrible,“ he says, describing the recipe attempt.

Margaret missed having barbecue sauce on her food, so Stephen decided to keep trying. After dozens of attempts, he finally came up with a “keeper.” When Stephen and Margaret let others sample the sauce made without onions or peppers, they were overwhelmed with requests for the sauce.

About a year ago, they decided to try to bottle their sauce. They found a bottling company willing to work with them.
