It's a really easy recipe to work with, and I know I'll make it again. But my husband and I both thought the sauce as is lacked something. I'm not exactly sure what, though. It definitely needs pepper and maybe something else. In checking a few recipe sites, I see that most similar recipes call for a variety of other spices (like ginger and a few others). I also thought the pineapple flavor was refreshing, but the lemon didn't really add much to the overall taste. So next time I'll leave out the lemon slices and just experiement with the sauce until I find a combination of spices that works for our taste buds.
