BBQ Chicken Quesadillas

Hey there Foodie Friends-

This recipe was created in partnership with SWEEETHEAT. SWEEETHEAT is a minority owned business based out Philadelphia.  SWEEETHEAT is owned and operated by Demond Mullen, owner of Streetside BBQ, a Philadelphia based bbq catering company.

Spicy Homey Honey was the first sauce Demond developed and has a special place in his heart. Spicy Homey Honey is also the first of their sauces that I have tried and it was great! It’s sweet, savory and tangy all at the same time. The spice level was very subtle and more on the mild side so don’t let the heat deter you from trying this awesome sauce (lol.)

More of SWEEETHEAT’s product offerings can be found on their website, SWEEETHEAT.com. Now lets get into these quesadillas! Ingredients and instructions are below… enjoy!

Foodie Love,

Erin
