The epitome of summer food comes down to BBQ. BBQ is a huge trend for the season, especially vegan BBQ. Amazon released a list of products that the online retailer believes will be popular in the coming summer months, including a new, healthier take on the traditional summer BBQ, including plant-based burgers and kimchi, according to The Daily Mirror. To celebrate all things vegan and all things BBQ, check out these 5 vegan BBQ sauces:

NataLove said, “How can this have only 1 carb per serving and taste so fantastic. You can definitely tell that it is a dieting sauce, but in my opinion only because it is a tad watery. However, it is PACKED with flavor! Semi-Sweet, mildly spicy, definitely smokey! IT is a fantastic marinade and exactly what you need in your pantry if you are dieting or in general just not trying to have as many calories with your food.”

Kim said, “I have a house full of picky eaters. Sometimes they just refuse to eat things if they think they’re too spicy. This BBQ sauce is sweet and not spicy at all, and my young kids enjoy it. Well, the whole family does.”
