I don't remember learning to make this comfort food. Even without bread, this is a good dish with a few delicious side vegetables. Store bought gluten free bread is also perfect with this dish. This is a to taste and texture dishes. You might not want to make it if you're sick because it may end up too spicy for anyone else to eat. This is the perfect food for sore mouth, or missing teeth days. Several different types of barbecue sauce can be used, such as honey, brown sugar, hickory, smoke, and spicy. Never the same twice.
