I have a real kick-ass BBQ sauce I picked up in Texas that I want to use before it goes bad. Any suggestions for something good to make? I don't have use of a grill right now. I'm game for anything; any kind of meat, any veggies, anything. Thanks guys!
You should try barbecue seitan. Basically just cut the seitan into hunks, saute a bit, then cover in sauce! We Texans love it!

pork ribs - boil them first, then cut them up, cover them in sauce, and bake until reduced (in a covered pan if possible). mmm sauce-y.

Mix it with a can of pork-n-beans and simmer on the stove until thick and yummy.

get the pre-cubed firm tofu and bake it in a layer of the sauce for 45 minutes until it's borderline chewy/crunchy. fucking yum.

I wonder if you could freeze your sauce in an ice-cube tray, and then store the cubes in a plastic bag until you have need of them? Thaw them with your microwave oven when the time comes.)
I've been doing that with taco meat, and it works really well.

A roast, onion, potatoes, and carrots in a crock pot. Put the sauce over it when served.
Or sauce, chicken, cheese on a pizza
Or put the sauce on a burger skip the ketchup
some of the best ribs are braised in the oven... Check out Alton Browns method.

I use awesome barbeque style sauce along with casserole beef, lima beans, celery, leeks, onion, an apple and some capsicum ('bell pepper') to make a stunning stew in my crock pot.
If the sauce is awesome enough then pretty much any meat/veggie/bean/whatever combination will taste good with it crock-potted.

li'l smokies are awesome.
also, if it isn't obvious, BBQ sauce goes well on sandwiches.

Since the forecast was rain yesterday, and we had company last night, yesterday morning my wife took a couple chicken breasts and a bottle of sauce in the crockpot while we were at work. After work, she shredded the chicken and let it cook another hour. Presto - best damn sloppy joes EVAR!

My famous Inside-Outside BBQ chicken.
Cut chicken into strips (for quicker boiling)
Boil chicken
Next I usually cut the cooked strips into smaller pieces (think cubes)
Throw the cubes into a pan and cover with BBQ sauce.
*also works great with sausage (no boiling required just cut/cook/cover with sauce).
Out of curiosity what sauce did you pick up?

If you have an oven, then you have a broiler. A broiler is just an upside-down grill (more or less). Barbecue away!

BBQ sauce, any random meat cut into bite size pieces, cheese, cilantro between two quesadillas makes a very tasty dish.

Response by poster: Great suggestions everyone, thanks! I think I may go the slow-cooking route, and save some for sandwiches...yum.
The sauce is from Salt Lick BBQ near Austin. Best sauce ever. I bought four bottles of it and I'm down to the last bottle (it expires in June). I was getting sick of eating it with baked chicken!

Oooo slow cooker left over sandwiches are awesome. You could also use the left overs in quesadillas, yum. I need to go make dinner now.

just in case you hadn't checked you can purchase directly.
Not sure where you are located but while temporarily transplanted from TX to CT I stumbled upon some fantastic BBQ sauce that definitely made the 7 years go by quicker - Stubbs. Keep an eye out the next time you're in the grocery store.
