THE Barbecue Sauce for Steaks and Chicken.

A very unique sauce I created for Dining for a Dollar. I tested this a sample of this on a chicken sandwiches, and I have come up with a final recipe that is not only kid friendly, but very flavorful. A great, and unique way to prepare this for any BBq sandwich. This has a 24 hour refrigeration time, which is the cooking time.
