Is There A Basil That Smells And Tastes Like BBQ?

Question

We purchased a basil plant several years ago from Home Depot. It was called BBQ basil. It actually smelled and tasted very BBQish. We dried a lot of it and ran out a couple years ago. We cannot seem to find it anywhere. Is there a basil that actually does have that BBQish smell and taste with a different name? Thanks

Answer 1

I am not aware of one, but there are countless cultivars. I would check with the place that you purchased, originally, for more information.
