BBQ Spiced Rice
BBQ spiced rice is a unique side dish that perfectly complements grilled meats and vegetables. In American barbecue traditions, smoky, spicy elements are often used to flavor dishes, and this rice follows that line. BBQ sauce gives the rice a deep, smoky flavor, while soy sauce and garlic powder enhance the umami effect. For an even more exciting variation, try serving it with a little fried onion or roasted peppers!

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the water.
