Lexington-Style BBQ Sauce

Health Nut 101's Note:

I have always loved Lexington BBQ sauce, and after much experimenting, I believe I have finally mastered the sweet tang of Lexington sauce! Because my diet is strictly pork-free, I served this sauce with pulled chicken breast and my parents LOVED IT!

Had a package of riblets just calling out for this sauce! So I listened, and put them in my crockpot. This is a very, very good BBQ sauce, with a good little bite. Glad I chose this recipe from you, as well as the others. Thnx for sharing this great recipe, Health Nut. Made for PAC Fall 2009.
