I have been a chef for over 30 years and when I tried this sauce it blew me away! 2 small changes I made were to hold back the Tobasco until the end and instead of bouillon cubes I used Tone Beef Base from Sam's Club (6 tsps.) and it worked fantastic. Instead of thickening it with cornstarch at the end I used two extra tablespoons of Brown Sugar and then I used the Tobasco to taste. This Recipe definately goes into the Family Cookbook!!

This is the first mustard based sauce I have ever tried, and it will be the last. There can't be a better one than this one! It may just be the only sauceI use from now on. I used light brown sugar since I didn't have dark and it was still GREAT! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe with the world.

Excellent! I've been looking for a mustard-based BBQ sauce that doesn't burn while cooking on the grill. I used this to baste my ribs and served it on the side as well. Rave reviews from all our guests!
