Great BBQ sauce and so easy to prepare. I cut the recipe in half and used it on a meatloaf recipe that called for a BBQ sauce glaze. I'm going to use this on a pork roast that I plan on putting in the smoker this week-end. Thanks, made for FOOTBALL POOL 2011 - Week 4.

This sauce is great. The only problem I had was the butter kept separating, but I just kept shaking it up before applying. Used it on pork ribs, and it was excellent! Sorry for the squatty picture...zaar did something to it :)

Terrific BBQ sauce! I made this just as directed (with a *generous* dash of Tabasco) and wouldn't change a thing. This sauce is not sweet at all, and the butter makes it rich and hearty. Really enjoyed this on boneless skinless chicken breasts, looking forward to trying on ribs - thanks for sharing the recipe!
