This is an especially interesting early Stonewall Kitchen promotional/gift product from only a few years after the company was founded in Maine in 1991. Stonewall Kitchen originally built its reputation through small-batch jams, sauces, relishes, mustards and specialty foods before becoming the nationally recognized gourmet-food brand it is today.
The colorful late-1990s packaging has a distinctive retro barbecue/picnic design, illustrated chefs, salt-and-pepper graphics and recipes printed directly on the rear panel.
According to the original box, the kit originally included:
- Stonewall KitchenSpice Rub
- Sun Dried Tomato & Olive Relish
- Maple Chipotle Grille Sauce
- Recipes
- Barbecue tips and entertaining suggestions
The back panel includes original recipes for“Massaged” Shrimp SaladandGrilled Mediterranean Quesadillas, along with period entertaining suggestions for hosting a barbecue.
