"My internet friend in Chattanooga sent me this recipe, I have made a small adaptation to it, and it works fine. We now serve this dish every week with our ribs, they go so well together. They taste better when warm rather than hot, as the flavour comes through then. Easy to prepare , I don't know why I didn't think of this myself, still you can't win all of the time. Thanks Brenda."
