Plum Barbecue Sauce
makes about 5 cups
Recipe from cookthink
You can baste just about any grilling, broiling or roasting meat with this plum barbecue sauce as it cooks -- it'll lend a beautiful sweetness and depth of flavor. You'll need to stir the sauce more often toward the end of cooking to be sure it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan as it simmers.
