This is one of the best barbeque sauces I have ever tasted. I was at a restaurant in Baton Rouge and I ordered their appetizer which consisted of boiled shrimp with this amazing sauce. I asked about the recipe and they actually gave it to me. There are actually three things that make this sauce different, they are bacon, fresh cilantro and red bell pepper. The restaurant was run by a young couple who were very inventive with other dishes as well. They also owned an Italian restaurant that had gluten free pasta early.
