NORTH CAROLINA BLUEBERRY BBQ SAUCE
DRY RUB
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon coriander
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

SAUCE
1 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup honey
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4teaspoon cayenne pepper, to taste
1/2 cup diced shallots (or Red Onion)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon molasses
Salt & Pepper to taste

Combine the seasonings in a small bowl and mix well with a spoon or small whisk. Sprinkle the rub generously on both sides of meat.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together the blueberries, honey and balsamic vinegar. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer, and cook until the blueberries have burst and released their juices, about 5 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper (add in increments if you are sensitive to spice), shallots and garlic and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes more. If you have an immersion blender, blend the sauce together to puree the sauce into a smoother consistency. You may also use a blender or a masher.
Stir in the molasses, salt and pepper, and continue simmering the sauce until it has thickened, about 15-20 minutes. Adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove from heat and let it cool; it will thicken as it sits. The sauce may be used right away or stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator after cooling completely.
Brush the meat with barbecue sauce on both sides while cooking. Reserve the remaining sauce for serving
