Raspberry Barbecue Sauce

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 40 min. + cooling YIELD: 4 servings.
Raspberries replace the traditional tomatoes in this unique barbecue sauce. Red pepper flakes add a little kick to the thick ruby-red sauce. Great over chicken breasts or pork tenderloin, brush on the sauce near the end of the grilling time. —Garnet Pirre, Helena, Montana
