The recipe below is actually part of a larger recipe for lobster spring rolls, which can be found on the National Watermelon Promotion Board website. I omitted the spring rolls, not because there’s anything wrong with them (they actually sound pretty awesome), but I just figured they were a little too complicated for a football party.
So what are you supposed to do with watermelon sweet and sour sauce? How about anything you want? You can put it on a meatball sub (example below), use it as a dipping sauce for pizza crust and hot wings, or even slow cook some of those mini hot dogs in it. You can even do shots of this stuff during the fourth quarter. I wouldn’t stop you … in fact, I’d probably join you.

This Watermelon Sweet & Sour Sauce sounds delicious. The uses you described are but a few. I’m sure people would find other things to dip in it. I’m writing down the recipe for use this summer too.
If you make it, let me know how it turns out!
