Blueberry Barbecue Sauce with Grilled Doves

4.5 / 5 (2 reviews)

This is essentially a blueberry barbecue sauce recipe, as it is so easy to grill your doves. You will want to make the sauce first, as the doves take very little time to cook. Don't have doves? No problem. Try this sauce on pork, duck, squab or even chicken thighs. I think it's too intense for chicken breasts, though. The recipe below makes a lot of sauce, but the grilled doves are meant for 4 people as a main course. You will actually have enough sauce to coat a flock of doves, however, so you could conceivably serve 12-20 with this much sauce.

Chef's Notes

Stored in a glass jar in the fridge, this sauce will last a month or two. It is also acidic enough for you to can it in a boiling water bath. Seal it in pint jars and boil 15 minutes to seal.

Joe Criddle ★ 4.0/5

The sauce is awesome! & you're right it's great on pork too, (and I'm sure on anything else you'd normally put bbq sauce on).

John G. ★ 5.0/5

Yum! And enough sauce left over to do a couple more batches of 6.

Did you make this recipe?
