Delicious!!! Doubled this but followed recipe exactly! Came out great. The sauce isn't to spicy that the kids can't eat it. I did use 3 tablespoons hot sauce in a double recipe. If you want a spicer sauce(which we will do for 1/2 the strips next time) I'd definatly add at least another tablespoon hotsauce and possibly some vinegar to cancel out the sweetness of the ketchup. Awesome recipe!
