"Hubby cooks on the weekends and tends to experiment with different mixtures. This one can be used on different meats, but you will need to change the citrus juice used depending on the meat you're cooking. I've noted these changes in the directions below."

What an original sauce! I was SO impressed with this! I made it for a beef roast so used the orange juice. This was great. Everyone enjoyed the flavour it gave to the roast. And my son and I liked some more added on top too! This has a great deep flavour that surprised me. I wasn't sure what to expect from the tomatoes but they cooked right down to a wonderful thick "paste". Thank you SO much to your DH for inventing this and to you for sharing this!
