This was very good, but the instructions are confusing, so I can't rate it any higher than a 3. The recipe says it serves 4, but it also says to divide between 2 glasses, 2 lime wedges, to pepperoncini peppers, etc. If you are serving this for 2 you end up with a couple of pretty potent Caesars at 3 oz each! This recipe needs a little bit of revision and clarification, but the flavours are just different enough from a regular Caesar that I think it deserves to be tinkered with.

Found it very very spicy. I think I would cut back on the Tobascco and add more worcestershire sauce next time and not use a hot horse radish. The bonedust seasoning is AWESOME
