I cut this down to 1/4 to try it. I reduced the simmering time to a total of 1/2 hour. Didn't have cayenne or coriander. Cayenne might have made it spicier anyways. Tried it in a sloppy joe recipe and it wasn't too spicy. Need to try it on chicken too. If it really does taste great on chicken, I will be keeping this for my BBQ sauce.
