This was my Dad's blue ribbon winning Spanish rice recipe as copied by my Mom. Recipe is well over 65 years old and was given to my Dad by one of the ranch cook hands that worked at the ranch house when he was in the Border Patrol working on the King Ranch.

This recipe originated from my own experiments. I was attempting to create the ultimate "home grown" hot sauce. I wanted good flavor coupled with good heat that could be used everyday for everything. I got tired of buying the small bottles of sauce at the store every week or two and decided to make my own. I usually grow a couple of dozen assorted habanero plants every year in my garden, so this recipe is the result of a couple years of experimentation. Enjoy, and by the way, you are allowed to make smaller batches!

This is the way my Dad cooked summer squash on the grill. I have modified it a bit over the years, but it continues to be a tasty-easy no-mess way to cook yellow squash and Zucchini on the grill to go with your burgers, steaks, or pork.
