The sauces of summer have arrived!
May 13, 2008
For immediate release
VANCOUVER, BC – Barbecue Champion and cookbook author Rockin’ Ronnie Shewchuk and International Award Winning Hot Sauce maker Denzel Sandberg are proud to announce the launch of their “Ronnie & Denzel’s” line of all-natural barbecue sauces.
The newly formed partnership has produced four lip-smackin’ sauces that pay tribute to the unique barbecue regions of the Southern States and the Caribbean. They are:
• Kansas City Style, a classic tomato-based sauce with a bit of spice and a nice tang;
• Southwestern Red, a naturally smoky sauce with the flavours of New Mexico Chiles and spices;
• Honey Mustard, which is loosely based on the sauces of South Carolina; and
• Habanero Heat, a truly fiery sauce with flavours reminiscent of the Caribbean islands.
“Denzel is a great cook and it’s been a lot of fun collaborating with him to create this line of classic barbecue sauces,” says Ronnie. “They’re true to tradition at the same time as they reflect our unique styles.” The sauces are all natural and are made in small batches with high quality ingredients that are totally free of chemical preservatives.
Ronnie will be sampling the sauces at three launch events in the Lower Mainland:
North Vancouver: Saturday, May 17 from 10.00 a.m. to 2.00 p.m. at Johnstone’s Barbecues & Parts, 165 Pemberton Ave, North Vancouver, 604-985-0234.

His competition BBQ team the Butt Shredders are two-time Alberta champs and they also won the 2004 Canadian Nationals.

Hey, I know that about you.
I was hoping for something way out there ... For example, that both you and your wife have historical family links to Commies.
