Wasabi or Horseradish?

[TimW]

Has anyone here ever tried either ingredient in BBQ?

I am a fan of well balanced flavors, usually with a little heat at the end. Mostly I prefer both Wasabi and horseradish to the pepper heat, but haven't ever tried in in BBQ.

Any ideas?

I like wasabi or horseradish mayo on my pulled beef or brisky sammiches. Usually its horseradish but if wasabi is available I use that.

Real Japanese wasabi costs $70-$100a pound. What we get in the US is actually horseradish that has a few things mixed in including a green dye.

yup.

I believe horseradish (like mustard) loses most of its flavor during prolonged cooking, so its best served as a condiment

comes close to a "who cares? ". its from horseradish.

Love horseradish with my prime rib. Should be good with BBQ. Going to give it a try.

My wife brought home some cranberry horseradish sauce from costco that I have been using as a condiment on pork loin, tri-tip sandwiches etc. Costco only carried it for a limited time but there are lots of simple and quick cranberry horseradish recipes on the internet if you want to make some. Not sure if that is what you had in mind.
