Agave as the sweetener, huh? Interesting idea in barbecue. Would like to try this as I massively lust after BBQ.

I've always relied on stevia as it's natural and I know it doesn't raise blood sugar at all. Never did any reading on agave though. Do you know if it raises glucose levels at all, Tweaks?

It's extremely low on the glycemic index. I really don't even count it as a carb-- I frequently use it as a substitute for syrup when I make oatmeal pancakes. :)

It's very good!!!
