Georgia Peach BBQ Sauce and Marinade  with Cigar City Brewing’s Operation Homefront IPA Grilled Chicken.

It’s easy to forget there is still so much we haven’t done or seen here. Some weekends, we don’t even leave Jupiter. Saturday, we decided to get out and explore. I didn’t want to spend another weekend in the house, and it was a gorgeous day!

We started our day with breakfast at The Nook. Great food and atmosphere!

Once we finished breakfast, we drove north to Port St. Lucie to go to the batting cages. Noon during the summer, in South Florida, probably wasn’t the best time to go.

Once we burned some calories, we traveled to Fort Pierce to check out Endless Summer Vineyard & Winery. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the place was great. I’d definitely like to go back during the winter {when it’s more comfortable to sit around outside during the middle of the day}. While there, we did a wine tasting, and tried all of the wines they offer. We both agreed we’d like to learn more about wine, and would like to do more wine tastings in the future.

Our last stop of the day was at Sailfish Brewing Company. We had a beer each before heading home. We were hungry!

On our way back, we stopped at a roadside vegetable stand. I was planning on making Grilled Peach Ice Cream, for a blog project, this week and couldn’t pass up fresh Georgia Peaches.

Huck came up with the idea to have grilled peaches and chicken. I started brainstorming ideas for incorporate the two ingredients together, and I think I did a pretty good job. I’m giving Huck 100% of the credit for this recipe, though. I never would have thought to mix peaches and chicken together. I’ve seen Peach BBQ sauce before, but never thought to try it.

This recipe is made with store bought BBQ Sauce, but it would also work great with my Homemade Beer BBQ Sauce. We were hungry, and the sun was going down, so this way was quicker.

After our breakfast at The Nook, we walked next door to Beer City. They have a huge craft beer selection. While walking around the owner told us they had some Cigar City Operation Homefront. Apparently, it’s had to find in this area, so we bought that plus a few other beers you’ll likely see in the near future on LF&B.

Operation Homefront is a collaboration beer that started in 2011 to help raise money and awareness for Operation Homefront. It’s released every year on Memorial Day.

A minimum of $150,000 from the sale of this beer will be donated to Operation Homefront!

The Peach BBQ Sauce would work great on Chicken, Fish, Shrimp, or Pork. I highly recommend trying this with chicken with the skin still on. The contrast of sweet, spicy, charred, and crispiness was amazing! It’s finger licking good!

Huck helping AKA waiting for the okay to take the plate downstairs and eat. I didn’t have to tell him twice.

This recipe is super easy and would make a great addition to any 4th of July celebration.
