I made this with ribs. This has the BEST sauce!! Kinda "bar-b-que-y", kinda sweet- DH & DD finally decided it was "awesome sauce". Wonderful! And my ribs did NOT dry out (which I hate!!). I will make this over and over!! Definitely will be served to guests!! Thanks so much- made for Spring PAC,2011.

I love my family and food is what my family gathers for. I hated cooking til I moved to Iowa for a few short months with a friend. The friend turned out to have an insane family (LITERALLY INSANE!!!) and he became stranger and stranger as the days went by. However his sick and psychotic mother was an excellent cook!! Go figure... Anywho she taught me how to cook and love it, so I can't say that my stay there was completely useless. Now I'm married to my 6th grade crush, we have a little girl and life couldn't be better!
