Notes

NOTE 1:  We used "Arizona Dreaming" spice mix from Penzey's for this recipe.  You can just use salt and pepper or you can use a BBQ rub or you can use any spice mixture you wish as long as the ingredients don't have sugar or other junk.
NOTE 2:  You have a couple of options for clean barbecue sauce.
